Relax & unwind in this stylish 2 bedroom unit (attached to the main dwelling). Enjoy a thoughtfully designed space with fully equipped kitchen, laundry & modern bathroom with a separate toilet. Stay cozy year-round with underfloor heating throughout the unit. Step outside onto the private deck, complete with a BBQ & enjoy outdoor dining & take in the beauty of the large native garden at the rear of the property.
