Privacy is provided by two rows of bushes to the left and to the right side of the pool screen and to the rear there is a wall flanked by a row of magnificent palm trees. The road beyond the wall was the original access road into Windsor Palms but two years ago the entrance was relocated and so this road is now unused. This means a nice peaceful private, setting with no traffic noise.
