an impressive frontage with extensive parking, illuminated pathways and olive

adjoining dining room and lounge provide further generous spaces in which to
gather, relax and enjoy the home.
Upstairs are four excellent bedrooms, including two with
their own ensuites, while outside the west facing wrap around garden provides
space for children, entertaining and enjoying the afternoon and evening sun.
Solar technology, a substantial single and a half garage, extensive parking and
sophisticated garden irrigation complete a beautifully considered, energy
conscious home that is ready to be enjoyed from the moment the new owners
