not large and balcony like in its field but the terrace does come with water views and that's always a good thing even if they're oblique like they are here

Expert Opinion:
the planters soften the views from inside,. controlling your views is a best use of a terrace that is too narrow for social use, and represents the primary reason why everyone should want a terrace.

Expert Opinion:
fantastic terrace in terms of size, the layout is not ideal unless you are an avid swimmer, as the best space of the terrace is exclusively for the pool. privacy is also currently an issue but that can be remedied bu planing a row of pine hedges.
