To the side of the house, a large raised decked sun terrace provides a fantastic outdoor entertaining space. Complete with a pizza oven, barbecue area, hot tub, and ample room for outdoor furniture and sun loungers, this space is perfect for al fresco dining, relaxation, and hosting gatherings with friends and family.
