Grand Bay: new build apartments in Manilva from €375,000

Wall and base units, a white quartz worktop that continues up the wall behind it, and a stainless steel sink. The appliances are by Bosch: an oven, a microwave, an induction hob, an extractor, a fridge, a washing machine and a dishwasher built into the units.

Each bathroom has a matt white lacquered vanity unit with two drawers and a single basin, under a mirror lit from behind. The showers have white slate-effect trays by Saloni behind glass screens, with brushed steel mixers by Tres built into the wall, and the toilets are by Jacob Delafon.

An oak-effect security door at the entrance, and flush oak-effect doors inside with stainless steel handles. The wardrobes are oak-effect too, lined inside, with a hanging rail, a shelf and drawers.

Matt aluminium frames by Strugal with double glazing and a thermal break, which is insulation built into the frame. The living room has sliding windows and the bedrooms side-hung ones, all with motorised shutters.

Saloni porcelain throughout the home, with skirting to match, and a non-slip version on the terraces and roof terraces.

An air-source heat pump heats and cools the home through ducts, set from a thermostat. Mechanical ventilation draws stale air out of the kitchen and bathrooms, and each home has its own heat pump for hot water. Solar panels shared by the community supply part of the electricity.

LED lighting, a video entry phone, USB sockets in the kitchen and bedrooms, and a dimmer in the living room. Telephone, data and television points are fitted in the kitchen, living room and bedrooms, with fibre and satellite television.
