Outdoors, the large secure yard faces north and is an ideal space for children, pets, or afternoon barbecues under the sun. The alfresco area invites relaxed outdoor dining, while a pair of kayaks—complete with adult and child life vests—encourage exploration of the nearby river. Pet lovers will appreciate the secure fencing and pet-friendly policy, making it a truly inclusive space for all members of the family.
