A stylish half bath, mini-split A/C, radiant heated floors and two exposed brick archways complete this calming and inviting retreat.
If that's not enough - the icing on the cake is the impressive, large (~840 sq ft), lush, south-facing garden - a quiet oasis perfect for lounging, sunning, grilling, or gardening.
