House of Character with Large Garden Pool & Annex in Lija UCA

Description

Set in the heart of the historic village of Lija, within the Urban Conservation Area, this remarkable Old Maltese House of Character is a rare opportunity to own a home rich in history, charm, and potential. Positioned on two roads and surrounded by the timeless beauty of the village, the property showcases authentic Maltese architecture and traditional features throughout. At the centre of the home lies a magnificent mature garden filled with citrus trees, creating a peaceful private oasis. Complementing the garden is a large swimming pool and deck area, perfect for outdoor living and entertaining. The property currently offers three bedrooms, including two exceptionally spacious master suites, each with its own en-suite bathroom. Thanks to its generous layout and existing structures, there is excellent potential to expand the home by an additional two or three bedrooms if desired. The house is organised around large traditional courtyards, with separate rooms surrounding these open spaces. These include a fully separate kitchen, a dedicated dining room, and an impressive converted mill room that serves as the main living area, showcasing beautiful architectural proportions and character. Original features have been carefully preserved, including a traditional garigor spiral staircase, kileb (stone corbels), and authentic flagstone flooring, all of which add to the property's historic appeal and unique atmosphere. An additional highlight is the self-contained annex located next door, with its own independent entrance. This annex includes a living area, kitchen, yard, and bedroom, making it ideal for guests, extended family, or rental opportunities. While the property would benefit from renovation and modernization to fully meet today’s lifestyle expectations, it presents an exceptional canvas to restore and enhance a truly special historic home. Owing to its position on two roads, the property also offers the possibility of incorporating a garage, subject to the necessary planning considerations. This exceptional residence combines authentic Maltese character with generous indoor and outdoor spaces, offering a unique home with significant potential in one of Malta’s most sought-after village settings.
