The ground floor further features a luxurious guest toilet, a urinal room, a technical space, and a charming living area with French doors to the garden. The spacious open kitchen, complete with island and premium appliances, connects seamlessly to the beautifully landscaped garden. A second bathroom with shower, sink, and toilet completes this level.
The garden offers tranquility and privacy with several sunny terraces, a steel entrance gate at the rear, and access via an alley. This outdoor space is a true extension of the home, perfect for entertaining or quiet reflection.
