Overview
This house would make a perfect second home. With no outside space the maintenance costs would be very low, however as mentioned before it may be possible to create a roof terrace. There is the possibility to park a car at the front of the house, but the hamlet itself is very quiet with the roads hardly used except by local residence. There is also parking a few meters away from the property.
A great property at a great price!
