Everything is new. the home features an efficient layout, tasteful décor, quality furnishings, and is fully stocked with everything needed for a comfortable stay. The large bedroom and private ensuite bathroom are perfect for a single person or couple. There is a second full bathroom, and when the fold-out sofa sleeper is used, the home will comfortably accommodate up to 3 guests.
