The principal living area is an impressive double height with vaulted ceiling and full length windows affording lovely garden and pool aspects, as well as allowing light to flood in. A double-sided open log burning fireplace which can be seen from the snug, creative mood lighting and cabling for surround sound makes this a fabulous entertaining space.
