The first floor offers a magnificent principal sitting room, positioned to take full advantage of the elevated rural outlook, alongside a sun lounge and balcony areas providing superb entertaining spaces. Three further bedrooms are located on this level, including an en-suite bedroom, served by a family bathroom. A second-floor mezzanine and large roof terrace/balcony further enhance the property’s unique design and outstanding views.
