Independent Comment
These smartly presented south-facing properties have been beautifully modernised within a period farmhouse structure. All 3 are designed with flair and there is a terrific ambiance of space, light and style. The ground floors are open-plan with light, modern floor tiling and attractive blend of pastel shades and bolder colour in the fixtures and fittings. The kitchen areas are well equipped, whilst the spacious living areas with high ceilings are comfortably furnished with modern decor. The bedrooms, all with luxury ensuite shower or bathroom, are also smart, light and airy with generous storage space. LoustalBeau features a full height panorama window to take full advantage of the lovely views over rolling countryside enjoyed by all 3 properties. The 12x5m solar-heated pool is smart and inviting with shaded areas on the generous-sized terrace surround and is thoughtfully located at a lower level to the front of the properties.
