The Design

About Ortho Makazi

Nje inafafanuliwa na miundo miwili mikubwa ya saruji iliyopangwa kwa ukinzani yenye muundo wa mbao. Katika ngazi kuu, ua mdogo na jukwaa kubwa la bustani upande wa kusini hutumika kama maeneo ya kati ambapo wakazi wanaweza kufurahia mazingira ya kipekee ya nje ya makazi ya mtindo wa ranch huku wakidumisha faragha. Wateja walinunua kipande cha ardhi chenye ngazi na umbo lisilo la kawaida kama mahali pa kutumia muda muhimu pamoja kama familia.
