OWNERS INSIGHT

"When we were downsizing from our large family home, we found many apartments claustophobic or too compact. The three double bedrooms, bright rooms, beautiful views, and peaceful location ticked the boxes we were looking for. You can literally follow the sun, with the late afternoon and early evening streaming through the kitchen and third bedroom, the latter we have utilised as a lounge and enjoys the best views of the sea. The development is well managed by the directors and professional management company. It has been a really difficult decision to sell as the apartment gives so much of the lifestyle we want, but we didn't realise how much we would miss our garden. For those wanting a low maintenance home with little gardening concerns, it is really is perfect."
