A restoration project in the capital: a courtyard house of about 24 rooms with original timber and stonework
Valletta is Malta's walled capital, and this historic house sits in a traditional streetscape within a short walk of gardens, a market hall and the bus terminus. The house is arranged over a ground floor, two mezzanine levels, a first floor and a roof terrace, with about 24 rooms set around a central courtyard. Arched ceilings, original beams and a stone staircase survive, and many are described as salvageable. It suits a developer, a hotel or guesthouse operator or a private buyer with a restoration plan, subject to planning and heritage approvals.
Why This Opportunity
About 24 rooms are set around one central courtyard across several levels. That is an unusual footprint for a house in the capital.
Arched ceilings, timber apertures and original beams run through the interior. Many of these elements are described as salvageable.
The layout suits a boutique hotel, a guesthouse or an upscale residential scheme. Any change of use needs planning and heritage approvals.
A courtyard with room for outdoor dining is joined by a roof terrace at the top of the house. Each can be planned separately.
