The south-facing living room features a large sliding door and a loggia, which can be used as a covered balcony where you can enjoy the sunshine. The open-plan kitchen is situated at the rear of the living room and can still be designed and fitted entirely to your own taste.

A generous private storage room of approximately 5 sq m is located in the basement. Ideal for bicycles, sports equipment and other storage. A private, secure parking space completes the property.
