Ask a questionAbout John and Enid
John and Enid left Calgary, Alberta and moved to Cuenca at the end of 2014. Along with us came two wire hair daschunds - they were the heroes of the exhausting trip. After months of research and preparing for the move, we made an exploratory visit in September and at that time, we found the place that would be our new home. After returning to Calgary, we sold all our belongings and made plans for the day that we would leave Canada and arrive in Cuenca. We arrived near to the end of 2014 and have not looked back since.
John and Enid purchased this condo in 2015
Why John and Enid chose Cuenca
Casa San Sebastian is history - it is the first colonial building to meet UNESCO requirements and to be rehabilitated in the El Centro area. The building was developed by a well-known Cuenca developer - Juan Heredia. It is just a short walk to Parque Calderon ... the centre of Cuenca and a hub of activity, especially on the weekends and during holidays. The outdoor flower market and San Francisco Market, along with food mercados, shopping and small tiendas are all close-by. The San Sebas Plaza is 2 blocks away and with that comes a popular restaurant/coffee house as well as a beer house and a cafe/gallery. Loft #1 is perfect for either a couple or single person who wants to make Cuenca their home - whether it be a permanent or a temporary stay. Along with being in a safe area, Casa San Sebastian is well maintained and all who either stay there temporarily or live there permanently, take pride in being part of Cuenca's history and have the luxury of being in the perfect and convenient location.
