17th Century Palazzo In Lija

A most imposing, welcoming and well planned out 17th century Palazzo has just enjoyed an extensive renovation and transformation into an outstanding residence with absolutely no expense spared.

Beautiful manicured gardens with ample seating venues at one end and an amazing citrus grove, home to mature orange, lemon, pomegranate and tangerine trees on the opposite side, together with an amazingly large swimming pool with extensive deck areas as well as pool house, games room and more.

With high perimeter walls ensuring absolute privacy, this Palazzo is located in the highly prestigious village of Lija, an area catering for the most distinguished properties in Malta. Meticulously converted to embrace today’s modern demands whilst exploiting the beautiful features of traditional homes including vaulted ceilings, wooden beams, fireplaces, stone and garigor stairwells, thick walls and four wells, as well as tonnes of modern day extras such as intelligent light and sound, underfloor heating, ample solar panels to supply the property twice over, top of the range apertures, chemical free mosquito management system, insulation, pressure pumps and loads more.

A formal dining room, separate living room, and a stunning designer kitchen (65sqm) with floor to ceiling apertures leading out onto a beautiful terrace overlooking the gardens and the swimming pool area.

‘The Great Room’ measuring approx 140SQM is ideal for banqueting or large events, but its street level access could be the ideal spot to store luxury or classic cars.

Further complimenting the ground floor level are a formal bathroom, a wine cellar, staff room and a staff toilet, a kitchen next to the pool area and a study off the formal entrance that can lend itself for security staff or a house manager’s office.

A guest flat in the property grounds leading to the citrus grove has two bedrooms rooms with a full kitchen living dining room and its own courtyard. A second residents’ entrance is accessible via a private lane leading to a private and gated driveway which can easily accommodate six to seven cars.

On the first floor, the master suite enjoys a spacious walk in closet and en-suite bathroom with an exquisite terrace overlooking the gardens. Another bedroom and separate bathroom together with a gorgeous study (or bedroom) leading out onto another terrace overlooking the citrus grove and a laundry complete this level.

Truly one of Malta’s most impeccable and best thought out properties.
