Built circa 1880 and extended over the years, the property extends to approximately 131 sqm and comprises two reception rooms, three bedrooms, kitchen, utility room, shower room with WC and a separate WC. A particular feature is the balcony accessed from the main living room, extending over the attached single garage.
