Yes, Gone With the Wind was the first thing that popped into our heads when we saw the magnificent entry way and staircase in this beautiful Cuenca home!
But of course, in a house this grand, you must have an entrance like this! The home is 9,000 square feet with 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms! Big enough for a B&B, a high-end retirement home, or even your family and guests!
Centrally located on 10,000 square feet of land on 12 de Abril, this mansion is one of those “behind the wall” hidden gems that Cuenca is famous for. The land alone is probably worth the asking price of $995,000!
We must talk about that winding staircase first because it is breathtaking. Twisting up to the second floor, it is flooded in light from the giant overhead atrium style skylight that bathes the entire second floor and its balconies with sunshine. As grand as it is, it was built in an open-concept design, so it still allows the first-floor areas to feel open and inviting.
Upon entering, once your eyes leave that beautiful staircase, you’ll see how large the open formal living room, dining room, bar area, chapel and social room are. And when you look up, after you stare at the beautiful crystal chandeliers, you’ll notice the balconies, one which comes off one of the guest bedrooms. And yes, we did say there was a chapel, which is a beautiful space set off by itself. A place where you can pray, meditate, or just contemplate in quiet. Then again, maybe the massive bar is the place for you to think! I know we thought about stopping for a scotch while we toured the home!
Obviously in a home this grand, there is a huge light-filled kitchen with loads of cabinets and counter space and even an eat-in breakfast nook. There is also a large office on the first floor with beautiful built-in shelves and cabinets and even its own window. A place where you could really get some work done! And finally, don’t forget to look at all that marble (not tile) and real hardwood flooring!
The entire first floor is just such an amazing scene to look at! Upstairs the open space continues with the wrap-around interior terrace that hosts the TV/entertainment area and a sitting area.
Then it’s off to the bedrooms. Between the downstairs and the upstairs, you have five family/guest bedrooms (most with their own bathrooms) and the huge master suite with a large walk-thru closet and giant bathroom with a jacuzzi tub!
Now, on the outside, the fun continues because you have a covered heated pool, a nice side yard with grass, and a huge backyard with a full basketball court!
In back, next to the basketball court and pool, there is also a huge guest house with a giant kitchen, barbecue, bread/pizza oven and bar! How fun is that?!
We could go on and on about this gigantic home, but it’s better for you to see it for yourself. So, call us today for a showing, we know you’re going to love the place!
