It took us 2 years to finish the house extension and renovation. Now it's time to be on the market. We have two seperate apartments, each one has its own entry, two bedrooms , fully kitchen and bathroom.
To help with people and serve people , that's the mission I do the hosting.
Close to two beaches (Bucklands Beach and Eastern Beach), 15 minutes walking to Half Moon Bay Marina.top school zoning ,nice and friendly nighbourhood.
