The business is designed for simplicity, with no set office hours and straightforward caretaking across a low-rise complex featuring a pool, BBQ area and Wi-Fi. Resly booking software is already in place, ensuring smooth day-to-day operations. The ground-floor manager’s residence comprises two bedrooms, a spacious courtyard, office and on-title storage, with no requirement to live onsite - offering flexibility to operate remotely or generate additional income by adding it to the letting pool.
