Exterior
The property features a spacious 1130 square meter garden. The house is set back from the main road, offering enhanced tranquility. The garden is arranged on different levels: there’s a lower courtyard area that can accommodate parking for four to five cars. Above this courtyard, the main garden area is lush and landscaped, with mature trees, cultivated plants, and vibrant flowers.
A large terrace, paved with local stone slabs, extends from the house, providing a perfect outdoor living space. Additionally, the master bedroom and another bedroom on the front side of the house open onto a large balcony. This balcony is sheltered by an overhanging roof, making it an ideal spot to relax in the summer, while enjoying views of the lovely terrace, the garden below, and of course, the surrounding mountains.

Additional Details
Some light maintenance could be considered to refresh the exterior cladding, the balcony railing, and the front gate, as well as a few touch-ups inside. However, these are not essential — the house is fully habitable and comfortable as it stands.
