In addition to the beautiful interior, the property also features a cozy conservatory with glass windows and a charming garden (250 sqm) with two entrances, one in the front and one in the rear. A convenient parking area (320 sqm, fenced) is located roughly 50 meters from the house. The remaining land (475 sqm) is covered in meadows and trees.
