A quaint 300 year old historical house recently renovated, being the only house in the street with an internal and external gardens facing the street. Besides, it's got views of old rooftops and the surrounding mountains from every window. What a treat!
The house is within a short walk to drugstores,bakeries,banks, art galeries greengrocer's, not to mention a street vegetable market in the back of the house held every Saturday morning.
