The surroundings / plot
The house is last located on the owner’s plot, but it is situated higher than the owner’s house, which makes it feel like you live on your own plot.
It is prefect for you who have small children or a small, kind dog you want to bring, because the plot is completely fenced (dog only on request). It is also possible to park the car right next to the plot.
There is a terrace around 3 sides of the house, with several seats, a deck chair and an electric grill.
