Style notes :
The developers have a successful track record in this area of producing elegant up-market Provencale villas with a contemporary twist. Their hallmarks are :
· Create spacious light & airy interiors with plenty of easy access out into the garden & pool areas.
· Retain and enhance character features like exposed stone walls, timber beams, pantile roofs, genoises, etc.
· The use of rich natural materials like stone tile floors and limed woodwork & joinery.
· Invisible climate control, like under-floor heating & cooling.
· Spacious modern open-plan kitchens with top-of-the-range appliances, fittings & units.
· Roomy modern bathrooms with top-of-the-range sanitaryware, taps & fittings.
Ajoining the property is another plot of land : 2500m² with building permission available, at a price of 500,000. If a buyer of the villa also wished to acquire the adjacent plot of land the vendor would consider a substantial discount on this price.
