Walking up the wooden stairs to the mezzanine over the dining area and kitchen you enter into the office area that could easily be transformed into an additional bedroom.
On the other side of the living room is a guest toilet. The natural stone was conserved, giving you the impression to enter into a beautiful stone cave.

In front of the house is a hexagonal pergola with sitting are for romantic dinners. The garden offers a fish pond with cascades (with remote control), stone BBQ area and nice pathways beautifully lighted at night. The owners planted lots of fruit trees: pomegranate, lemon, banana, olive, apricot, orange, persimmon, bergamont etc.

An old oak tree grows on the property. This is why a stone emblem of an oak fruit and leaf is found on top of the aluminium windows that are all equipped with mosquito screens.
