A gracious formal dining room opens to a picturesque garden courtyard with pond, while a light-well with striking mosaic feature wall provides a stunning outlook to the premium kitchen appointed with marble benches and a large walk in pantry as well as the palatial living and dining room with gas fire. 

The living spaces extend out to an entirely private west-facing landscaped garden with heated pool and spa, expansive entertaining terrace and a pool house with kitchenette and bathroom.
