The home’s thoughtful layout ensures comfort and privacy for every family member. On the ground floor, three beautifully proportioned en-suite bedrooms offer restful retreats, each with its own unique outlook and ambience. Upstairs, the main suite is a true sanctuary - a full private wing that includes a lounge, reading nook, spacious bedroom, and a luxurious en-suite bathroom with walk-in closet. Large windows frame panoramic mountain views, creating a daily reminder of this home’s remarkable position. A whimsical attic room, complete with its own toilet and bedroom area, adds even more versatility - perfect for kids with a sparkling imagination. For added flexibility, a self-contained one-bedroom flatlet with its own kitchen, bathroom, and lounge provides ideal accommodation for guests, staff, or older children.

The magical garden is a masterpiece in itself - sprawling lawns, mature trees, and vibrant plantings surround a sparkling swimming pool, all designed to flow naturally from the main house.
