The L-shaped design of the main living area allows for an inviting entryway with impressive ceiling heights, while the lower point of the ceiling introduces a cosy and comfortable feel ideal for relaxed evenings and winter nights in front of the TV. A particularly practical feature of the home is the under-house store accessible via the living area, perfect for the Christmas tree, camping gear or hide & seek
