... banana bush, a loquat tree and a lemon tree. From the courtyard, a door opens into the approx. 18sqm room on the right, which is intended as a bedroom. The other door from the courtyard goes straight ahead into a vestibule of about 8sqm. From there, a door on the right opens into the approximately 14sqm kitchen-living room, and to the left there is a small bathroom. As can be seen in the pictures, the house needs more extensive renovation work, especially the bathroom needs to be renewed.

The room and the kitchen share one wall and can be directly connected by a door.
