At the heart of the home is a bright and spacious open-plan living area where the living room, dining area and kitchen come together in one impressive space.

The living area opens directly onto a large terrace, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living.

The kitchen is well designed with generous storage, ample work surfaces and a central island. Recent appliances include an AEG induction hob, an AEG self-cleaning oven, a Siemens dishwasher and a Samsung double refrigerator. The kitchen connects naturally with the dining and living areas, making the space well suited for both everyday use and entertaining.

The residence offers three bedrooms. The primary suite is positioned in a separate part of the home and includes its own bathroom with shower. Two additional bedrooms are spacious and can serve as children’s rooms, guest rooms or a home office, depending on the buyer’s needs. The main bathroom is tiled and includes a walk-in shower, wall-mounted toilet and heated towel rail. Bathroom fixtures are of good quality and were selected with attention to detail.

Outdoor living is one of the property’s strongest features. A large, low-maintenance terrace surrounds the house and provides excellent space for outdoor dining, relaxation and enjoying the view. The hot tub is positioned on the terrace, offering a private and sheltered place to unwind while taking in the surrounding landscape.

The home also includes a spacious garage of approximately 40 sq m with tiled flooring and an electric door opener.
