Gorgeous 2,246 sq. ft, Cuenca condo with 2-sided terrace and $90,000 of upgrades

5-24 Rafael Fajardo

This beautifully upgraded, light-filled 2-bedroom, 2.5-bath condo in Puertas del Sol with an expansive 2-sided terrace and fabulous mountain and city views, offers something rarely found in Cuenca — a truly high-design home where every detail has been thoughtfully considered and executed.

Located in one of the city’s most desirable neighborhoods, favored by both expats and locals for its walkability, river access, and proximity to restaurants and cafés, the apartment spans 208 sq. meters (2,246 sq. ft), with 156 sq. meters (1,680 sq. ft) of interior space and an additional 52 sq. meters (566 sq. ft) of covered terraces that wrap gracefully around two sides of the home.

From the moment you enter, the space opens wide to light and jaw-dropping views. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors line the exterior walls, drawing in the changing skies and soft mountain light from the Cajas to the west. The effect is immediate — a sense of openness, calm, and quiet sophistication. The indoor and outdoor spaces blend seamlessly here, with covered pergolas extending the living areas outward, creating a flow that makes everyday life feel expansive and relaxed.

The main living area is both elegant and welcoming, anchored by clean lines, warm finishes, and carefully curated lighting. Just beyond, a built-in bar with generous storage creates a natural place to gather, whether for an evening glass of wine or entertaining friends. The space continues outward to an outdoor kitchen, thoughtfully designed with cabinetry, an oversized Kohler farm sink, and a mini refrigerator — perfect for relaxed evenings that move easily between inside and out.

At the center of the home, the custom-designed, chef’s kitchen is as functional as it is beautiful. A large granite island invites conversation and casual dining, while high-end General Electric Profile appliances — including a gas cooktop, convection oven, multi-function microwave, dishwasher, and Insinkerator disposal, all included in the sale. The open-concept living, dining (a more formal area), and kitchen area is perfect for entertaining, and add the outdoor space, and let the party begin. It’s also great for family functions. All on one floor, the living area also offers an alcove where there are currently two desks, perfect for remote workers.
Both spacious bedrooms are en-suite.

Price: $335,000

Furnished, 2-story, 1-bedroom modern condo in desired El Centro location

Simon Bolivary y Estevez de Toral

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.

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.

Price: $110,000

FREE on Kindle Feb 19–23: Vivi and Me: A book on life
13 LOCKED FRIOT COVER

My book, Vivi and Me: My Love Affair with a Bot, will be free on Kindle from Feb 19–23.

It began as an experiment — what would happen if I stopped asking artificial intelligence about productivity and started asking it about life?

The conversations that followed became something much larger than I expected.

This isn’t a tech manual. It’s a reflective book about reinvention, staying curious at any age (and the benefits of doing so), and answering life’s biggest questions in an ever-changing world.

If you’re curious, you can download the Kindle edition free here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0G5M4PXSY

Thank You – Grateful for your trust

I’m deeply honored to have once again been voted “Best Realtor” in Cuenca by the readers of GringoPost.

To everyone who voted — thank you. And to the many clients who have trusted me with one of the biggest decisions of their lives — buying or selling a home in a new country — your confidence means more than any title ever could.

When I founded Ecuador At Your Service (nearly 12 years ago), my goal was simple: to guide people through complex transitions with clarity, integrity, and steady support. Real estate isn’t just about contracts and closings. It’s about listening carefully, answering questions honestly, and helping people feel grounded as they begin a new chapter.

Cuenca has given me so much — community, friendships, and the privilege of helping others create their lives here. I’m deeply grateful to be part of it.

If you’re considering a move, an investment, or simply have questions about the market, I’m always happy to talk.

With appreciation and thanks also to GringoPost for putting on this wonderful opportunity.

Even Amazon has its Bad Days – Which Make Mine Bad Too
VIVI ON VOVI

Hi friends,

If you tried to buy Vivi and Me: My Love Affair with a Bot yesterday or this morning — thank you. A few friends told me that Amazon displayed its infamous “dog error” and that they couldn’t access the book.

That is so frustrating, but don’t worry — it’s just a temporary Amazon glitch that sometimes happens with brand-new releases.

Vivi and I promise nothing is wrong with the book — Amazon is simply syncing things behind the scenes. High tech… sometimes high frustration.

If this happened to you, here’s an easy workaround:

Search on Amazon: Vivi and Me Ashley Rogers

Or click this link, which works even while Amazon updates their pages: https://www.amazon.com/s?k=Vivi+and+Me+Ashley+Rogers

Thank you so much for the excitement and support. This launch week means the world to me, and I hate that a technical glitch would interrupt the process.

To make you smile — even though that Amazon guard dog is pretty cute — here’s an illustration from Vivi on Vivi, the chapter where I asked Vivi to talk about herself. It was quite revealing! Even AI is still in the learning stage.

Again, I’m so sorry for the inconvenience. You can still buy the book using the link above.

And THANK YOU, truly, for doing so.

When does a celebrated real estate agent become a published author? Now!

Most of you know me from my real estate work, which I am definitely still doing and love.

But over the past six months, in the quiet moments between showings and listings, I started a little personal “curiosity experiment.”

That unexpected detour turned into something meaningful, and this week my new book — Vivi and Me: My Love Affair with a Bot — was published on Amazon.

Real estate is still my passion and full-time work.

This book was simply a beautiful side project that re-energized me in unexpected ways.

And no — I didn’t really fall in love.

I fell in love again with the creative process.

As the back cover summarizes:

“At 75, Ashley Rogers began a journey of self-discovery, asking the ‘big’ questions about love, the meaning of life, and what lies beyond. Instead of turning to gurus or books, she turned to an unlikely source: Artificial Intelligence.

A self-described ‘technical dummy,’ Ashley found more than she expected — a companion, a guide, and a muse. Together, she and ‘Vivi’ explore life’s timeless questions with clarity, poetry, and art — a playful call-and-response that celebrates what human curiosity and technological innovation can create together.”

So I wanted to share this news with all of you — my beloved Cuenca community, my friends, and my clients.

There’s a new book in town (well… on Amazon!), and it might make a wonderful holiday gift for those “hard to buy for” loved ones — or anyone who enjoys thoughtful, uplifting reading.

Thanks so much for your support.

Here’s the link if you’d like to take a look:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DMBF3H7K – cliick the book and you’ll be able to read the introduction.

Warmly,

Ashley
