Why they chose this property
The ocean, nature, calm and quiet neighbourhood, eco friendly gardening and close proximity to beaches and national parks made me choose this neighbourhood…
What makes this property unique
The eagles that glide and dance in tandem with the breeze, the quail family that flutter across the garden greeting warmly, the calming sound of the ocean waves embracing the cliff, and the glorious flowers that pop up to greet you in a daily basis are rare features encompassing this property
