A secluded drive way brings you to the parking area at the front of the house, the gardens almost totally surround the house and are planted with mature fruit trees, local shrubs and plants. Local stone has been used to create discreet areas around the gardens for coffee in the shade, or breakfast in the sun. A large open balcony at the upper level, and off the ground floor entry of the house, provide a great area for dining, entertaining and soaking up the sea views. The ground floor, entry point of the house, has an open lounge area, off which is a modern fitted kitchen, a ground floor WC and a separated work area/guest bedroom.
