The house which is detached and built over two levels has a relatively new roof and, other than two rooms, been fully reformed and affords a huge 355 mtrs of living space with an additional detached 30 mtr outbuilding / summerhouse ( situated at end of the pool).Due to age and type of property some the interior walls would benefit from re painting/plastering but a quick and in expensive fix.
