Tour
The entrance leads through a striking door into the central hallway, where high ceilings and natural light immediately set the tone. A grand staircase draws the eye, while steel-framed doors lead into the spacious kitchen-diner at the rear — the heart of the home, with views of the lush garden. The front-facing living room features a classic bay window and an open fireplace, ideal for evenings at home. Ceiling ornaments accentuate the height and charm of the space. On the first floor lies the master suite with a walk-in dressing room and a luxurious en-suite bathroom. Two large bedrooms at the front share a second bathroom. The second floor surprises with soaring ceilings, a multifunctional space, a guest bedroom, a kitchenette and a third bathroom — ideal for guests or remote working. The lower ground floor adds flexibility: a bright work or guest room at the front, a second room at the rear with direct garden access, and a private bathroom. The outside space includes a sunny, secluded south-facing garden. And above, crowning the house, a generous rooftop terrace offering tranquillity, space and panoramic views — also facing south.
