The ground floor further accommodates two double bedrooms and a bathroom. Ascending to the upper floor reveals a generously proportioned master bedroom featuring a private terrace, en-suite bathroom, dressing area, and a small office space situated on the opposite side of the galleried landing. The lowest level of the villa comprises a shower room, various storage spaces, and a substantial area exceeding 40m2, offering versatile possibilities such as an additional bedroom, granny flat, games room, teenagers' den, office, gym, or home cinema. This space is bathed in natural light and provides independent access to the lush garden.
