This 2-story, open-concept, one-bedroom, modern, furnished condo in a refurbished colonial building in the heart of Cuenca's historic center is the perfect live-in or rental-income property.

Tucked inside one of El Centro’s most sought-after buildings—just two blocks from Parque San Sebastian and set along the iconic Simón Bolívar—this two-story,  loft-style condo offers a rare combination of historic character, modern comfort, and strong rental potential in one of Cuenca’s most desirable locations.

Housed in a beautifully restored 110-year-old patrimonial property, thoughtfully reimagined by one of Cuenca’s most celebrated and award-winning development companies, this residence blends timeless architecture with a clean, contemporary layout that appeals equally to full-time residents and short- or long-term renters.

With 77.85 square meters (838 square feet) of well-designed space, the condo feels larger than expected, thanks to its two-story layout and the natural separation between living and sleeping areas.

The main level is open, warm, and filled with light, with abundant windows illuminating the living, dining, and kitchen spaces throughout the day. Artisanal brick floors add texture and character, while the open-concept design creates an easy flow that works beautifully for both everyday living and entertaining.

The kitchen is fully equipped with appliances, including a refrigerator, gas stove, oven, range hood, microwave, and a washer and dryer combination, all complemented by custom-built cabinetry and smart storage throughout. The condo is being sold completely furnished, including a comfortable sofa and living room chair, living room tables, built-ins, dining table with four chairs, and thoughtfully selected pieces that make it immediately livable.

A social bathroom is discreetly located behind the kitchen, making the main level both functional and guest-friendly.

Upstairs, a beautifully crafted solid wood staircase with matching handrails leads to a spacious, en-suite primary bedroom that feels like a private retreat. The generous size of the bedroom is a standout feature, offering flexibility not often found in loft-style properties.

From the bedroom, a small wooden terrace offers a perfect spot for plants or a quiet outdoor moment and provides direct access—through a charming swinging door—to the building’s lush, plant-filled outdoor living area. Because of its proximity and ease of access, this shared space functions almost like a private extension of the home—an added lifestyle feature that renters and owners alike truly value.

The building also features a rooftop terrace with sweeping views of Cuenca’s historic skyline, further enhancing the living experience.

Located just steps from Parque San Sebastian—one of the city’s most vibrant and picturesque squares, surrounded by cafés, restaurants, shops, and 3 blocks from the Museum of Modern Art—this condo sits in a prime walkable location that is in high demand for both residents and visitors.

The 2-story, open-concept, one-bedroom, modern, furnished condo in the heart of Cuenca's hisstoric center,  is listed at $110,000, with a monthly HOA of $169, which includes high-speed fiber-optic internet, building maintenance, cleaning of common areas, and insurance on the building..

Whether you’re looking for a stylish city home, a lock-and-leave pied-à-terre, or a strong income-producing property, this loft-style residence is a compelling opportunity in the heart of historic Cuenca.
