This terrace area is very large, and leads to the BBQ room, another good space, with both open BBQ and enclosed bread/pizza oven.

This area has two doorways, one to the garage side, and the other leading to the opposite side of the house.Please watch the video to get a better understanding of the layout of this large house.
