At the front of the house is a spacious lounge room and sitting area that enjoys the breeze through the glass door leading to the front verandah. The extra-large kitchen / dining area, is a chefs dream. This kitchen is wow! Brand new with white cupboards and designer benchtop and splash back.
The house has been completely renovated with all new appliances and fittings to the kitchen and ensuite that give a modern feel mixed with genuine Portuguese charm.

New flooring flows throughout the entire top floor to give a seamless, clean look. The ceiling has been fully insulated and new double-glazed windows fitted to the huge window downstairs, kitchen, and rear upper sections. New external roller shutters have been fitted to the front upstairs windows and an electric shutter to the front verandah door. The wooden windows have been kept across this front section to maintain the charm of the house. Mosquito screens have been fitted to all windows throughout the house as well as the front balcony door. All light switches, lights and door handles have been replaced with modern and efficient ones.

At the front of the downstairs area, is a very large room for entertaining or whatever you choose, along with a kitchen and half bath for your convenience. The floor is tiled with tasteful Portuguese ceramics and the walls have been treated and lined with moisture proof material to prevent mold.

The rear section of the downstairs is currently used as a workshop/ laundry area which also houses a large 200L hot water system, suitable for a large family or lots of guests. This section has a lot of interesting history, and the story goes, it was a theater for the local people many years ago and still has the stone footing for the coffee grinding machine.

While enjoying all of this space and entertainment luxury, you may wish to relax outside in the sunshine on the fully decked patio which can be accessed from the lower floor or by the stairs from the rear balcony.
