Air conditioning and floor cooling in summer and comfortable underfloor heating and a cozy wood stove in winter. The original handmade Portuguese Santa Catarina floor tiles are on the floor.

From the cozy living room, you have access to the largest bedroom, the bathroom, and the second small bedroom.

Of course, with modern underfloor heating for winter! A rain shower with hand shower, vanity unit, and toilet complete the bathroom. 

Living room
In it you will find two comfortable armchairs, a three-seater velour sofa, coffee table with marble and glass, and a modern rug.

In this garden, you will also find the large gas barbecue where you can barbecue to your heart's content. A jeu de boules court will be added in the future.
