The house was built about 1600. It is situated in an impasse so enjoys peace and quiet, while at the same time is minutes away from the lively town with its bars, shops and historical sites. The house has two double bedrooms, two bathrooms, a sitting room, separate study, kitchen diner and a roof top terrace. The house is furnished with an eclectic mix of styles, modern and antique. It is beautifully furnished and would suit a person who appreciates art, ceramics and lovely furnishings. I am single and live here alone. Yemi the Egyptian Mau also lives here.I was a secondary teacher in London and now focus on developing my photographic skills and restoring the house.
