The stone property has been renovated externally and internally with exposed stone, and inside there are modern, quality fittings and finishes. The house is about 60 sqm and is as follows: with accommodation all on one floor there is a modern country kitchen with dining area, a good double bedroom, closet, modern bathroom with showers and a private courtyard.
