THE FLAT: A one-bedroom beautifully furnished flat on the ground floor of a development completed in 1996. It has a double bedroom, a large room that serves as sitting room and dining room with a well-equipped kitchen area, and a bathroom with shower and washing-machine. The main bedroom has a large double bed. The sitting-room has a spare single bed stored under the sofa. There's central heating and double glazing so the flat is very warm in winter. There are private terraces leading off the two main rooms, one with a brilliant barbecue oven. There's a view of the mountains but not the lake. The flat has its own underground garage. The block is surrounded by gardens with oleanders, wisteria, palms, mimosa, pomegranate and olive trees. The lake-shore is a 10-minute downhill walk away. There is a network of footpaths and mountain-bike routes over the mountain-side and excellent walks from the door of the flat.
