Adjacent to the kitchen is an intermediate room that currently houses the washing machine connection and is located conveniently under the stairs.

The rear room on the street level features a skylight, bathing the space in natural light, and presents an excellent opportunity to be transformed into an additional bedroom complete with an en-suite bathroom, should the new owners desire to modify the layout.
Moving to the first floor, the layout continues to impress with an enclosed area that includes a modern toilet with a washbasin and clever storage space tucked under the staircase. The main living area is a spacious and L-shaped room spanning the full width of the house.

The beach, the Pier, the Kurhaus, and the Circustheater are all just a stone's throw away, allowing residents to fully enjoy the seaside lifestyle.
