What the listing leaves out
This listing does not state the number of rooms, bedrooms, bathrooms, or any details about the garden, balcony, or garage. As a result, the description of the home itself is limited to what is known: the year of construction, the energy label, and the floor area. The absence of these details means the full picture of the interior is not available from the listing alone.
