A home in northern Son La Province boasts ample common space and nature for a three-generation family seeking to intermingle and relax.

Located in the center of Son La Town, the house is built on two plots with a total area of more than 140 meters square. Combining two plots allows homeowners to have a larger living space instead of a traditional tube house.
