“What you love about the property” (vendor perspective)
Living here has been an absolute dream. The first thing that captivated us was the view. Every morning, we wake up to the most beautiful sight of the Deep Creek and valley - it’s simply magical. The design of the home makes the most of the surroundings, with the living area and outdoor spaces seamlessly connected, which has been perfect for entertaining family and friends. We’ve loved the sense of space, both inside and out. The land has given us the opportunity to enjoy rural life, with olive trees, a vegetable garden, and room for our horses.
