Exceptional 17th-Century House of Character with Gardens, Pool & Garages
Located within a protected Urban Conservation Area in the heart of Birkirkara, this exceptional 17th-century House of Character has been meticulously restored and upgraded to an uncompromising luxury standard. Offering approximately 598 square meters of elegant internal living space and an outstanding 490 square meters of private landscaped gardens with a swimming pool, this residence represents a rare opportunity to acquire a historic home of significant scale, privacy, and architectural distinction in central Malta.
A grand entrance leads into the original part of the residence, where beautifully preserved limestone walls, soaring ceilings, and authentic period features immediately convey a sense of timeless sophistication and heritage. The seamless integration of original architecture with contemporary design defines the character of this remarkable home.
The property offers a spacious formal dining room ideal for refined entertaining, opening onto a charming Spanish-style courtyard and an elegant reception area. Adjacent is a fully self-contained one-bedroom guest suite, providing privacy and flexibility, alongside a refined television lounge and study.
The upper level comprises three generously proportioned double bedrooms, each with en-suite bathrooms and private terraces overlooking the serene garden and pool area.
A striking original 17th century stone pottery klin transformed into an impressive lounge and dining area, an exceptional space designed for entertaining on a grand scale.
A contemporary extension houses a fully equipped designer kitchen featuring a teppanyaki grill, offering a gourmet culinary experience at home. This area opens directly onto an alfresco dining space, perfectly suited to Malta’s year-round outdoor lifestyle.
The first floor further accommodates a spacious dedicated home office, an open lounge area, and four additional bedrooms, including a luxurious master suite with walk-in wardrobe and en-suite bathroom. A family bathroom and a separate guest WC complete this level.
A striking central skylight crowns the staircase leading to the roof level, where a private bedroom with en-suite, ideal as a nanny or live-in staff suite, is complemented by a spacious washroom with direct access to expansive panoramic roof terraces.
This unique residence is equipped with modern comforts and advanced sustainable technologies, including underfloor heating throughout, full air-conditioning, 48 solar panels with battery storage, and a comprehensive water filter system. Security features include CCTV surveillance and a state-of-the-art alarm system, ensuring privacy and peace of mind.
Further enhancing this exceptional property are two separate lock-up garages with airspace, one accommodating a small car and the other suitable for a large car plus an additional small car. Both garages are directly interconnected with the house, an extremely rare and highly valuable feature for a historic residence in a central urban location.
Combining historic prestige, modern luxury, generous outdoor space, and strong long-term appeal, this remarkable property is ideally suited as a primary residence, luxury second home, or strategic international investment as a luxury B&B.
This extraordinary home must be viewed in person to fully appreciate its true essence, character, and soul.
