From the enclosed front veranda gorgeous wooden double doors welcome you into a long wide passage to a large sitting room, various bedrooms, a large kitchen with an old inglenook, separate dining room and office/music room. Most of the carpeted floors are wooden and would look fantastic if they were exposed. Some windows are wooden and others metal.

The fruit trees include apricot, cherry guava, fig, peach, orange, prune, almond and loquat trees.
