This 1960s stone house has just over half an acre of garden at the back and to the side, a great swimming pool, and a covered terrace next to the pool. Inside there’s a light and airy living and dining room which opens onto a balcony, with a good sized kitchen next to it. The property also has no less than four bedrooms which I’ve got a few thoughts about how to convert, and two shower rooms. There’s also a cellar space and a garage. Find out more here.
