The coastal park provides an abundance of sheltered green spaces and is the perfect place to relax and unwind.
The apartment is accessed via the original curved and elegant staircase. The lower level has a well-proportioned sitting room with a cast-iron fireplace and double doors opening onto the south-facing balcony with panoramic coastline views and is the perfect spot to soak up the sun.
