The owners love the flexible format of the home.

The main level comprises the marble kitchen with Miele appliances, lounge and dining rooms, a family room, the fourth bedroom of office and the large foyer. Both the family room and the dining room open to a lovely courtyard with water feature and awning that allows for all weather entertaining.
