This eight-year-old fully-furnished home was built by an American woman designer with elegant finishes—from the antique double French-door entry to the wow-factor cantera stone fireplace—and an open-plan great room with southern-facing French doors for great light & winter sun in the dining and kitchen. The ground floor master suite—with a dual-sink oversized bathroom—opens directly to a covered fireplace-anchored terrace for sangria lunches and snoozy siestas…you’ll adore it! The 2nd floor boasts a large fireplace-lit media room with abundant southern light separating two bedrooms, one with its own terrace and separate entrance for those guests who come and go at all hours.
