It adds that the “delightfully spacious duplex” is fully furnished and fully equipped.

All bills are included with the rent and it is advertised as perfect for families or individuals, companies looking for temporary housing for short-term relocation, business travellers, and other reasons for short term lets.

The furnished flat’s minimum term is one month.
