The French doors lead out onto wide decked terraces around the pool, – perfect for outdoor dining.

The professional kitchen leads off the living area and has units and appliances of high quality design, including a central island. Leading from this is the utility room, which gives access to the external maintenance area with additional washing machines and wine storage. This section of the house is specifically designed for use by resident staff.

This floor has a double bedroom with a dressing room and en-suite bathroom, fitted with a whirlpool bath and twin sinks. Glass doors lead directly onto the pool level.
