Features and fittings
The living area centres around a lounge-diner opening onto the terrace, whilst the separate kitchen allows you to cook without disturbing the rest of the home. The kitchen is fully fitted, with built-in cupboards and the necessary fittings to accommodate all standard appliances, and offers a spacious worktop and ample storage space.

Climate control is provided by a central air-conditioning system, which distributes cool air in summer and can be supplemented with heating during the colder months, ensuring a comfortable temperature all year round.
