The French doors from the open plan living area open onto a large deck which is private and sunny. A curved wall is a unique feature providing the shelter and privacy.

A large carport to the rear of the house also provides shelter from the elements & contains two lockable cupboards which are ideal for wood & sports equipment. This is a property not to be missed
