There are large patio doors from the kitchen to the private courtyard, providing beautiful natural light into the kitchen throughout the day. The well-equipped kitchen is fully fitted with induction hob, oven, dishwasher, microwave and washer/dryer - everything you need for preparing home cooked meals for the family to enjoy.
