Business at the front, party time at the back! This remarkable development seamlessly integrates the original front of the villa with a modern and contemporary rear extension, offering a harmonious blend of classic charm and contemporary living. Step inside and discover the heart of the home—a stunning open plan kitchen, living, and dining space, thoughtfully designed to cater to the needs of the modern family. The spacious layout provides a perfect setting for both everyday living and entertaining guests. With its seamless connection to the outdoors, a large covered deck creates an inviting extension of the living space, offering ample room for outdoor relaxation and enjoyment. The covered louvred roof of the deck provides versatility, allowing you to enjoy the space in any weather. Whether you desire an open-air experience or a sheltered retreat, you can effortlessly adjust the roof to suit your preferences, providing ultimate comfort throughout the seasons. Incorporating large full-height windows and doors, this renovation maximizes the infusion of natural daylight, creating a bright and welcoming atmosphere throughout the home. The interplay between indoor and outdoor spaces creates a sense of expansiveness and connection with nature, enhancing the overall ambiance. Furthermore, the upper and basement levels have undergone a modernization process to optimize the floor layout. These updates ensure that every square foot of the villa is utilized effectively, offering a functional and efficient living environment that meets the demands of contemporary lifestyles..
