What makes this property unique
Our home is designed with comfort and privacy in mind.
The lounge, dining, and kitchen areas are separated by doors, which helps keep the other spaces more private. We have wooden floors, so you might hear a bit of foot traffic during the day.
Temperature-wise, it’s a cozy spot in winter and stays nice and cool in summer.
