Step through the property and find a stunning living/dining room, an open space complimented by neutral décor, bright windows and access to your own private balcony where you can enjoy the far-reaching sea views with your morning coffee.

Meals can be enjoyed on the social wooden dining table before settling in for a cosy night in front of the TV with a blanket on the sofa, or relish in each other's company and spend the night chatting away with drinks in hand.

Also on this floor is a sleek bathroom with the choice of a bubble bath or a brisk rinse in the overhead shower, whilst a king-size bedroom rests behind, offering crisp décor and ample storage.
