Mdina
Palazzo

We are proud to present this unique seventeenth century PALAZZO for sale, considered to be among the most beautiful buildings on the Maltese Islands. A pearl of the Medieval period, located in the heart of Mdina. One enters this magnificent property through huge, timber front doors that open directly onto an arcaded courtyard bound by walkways and ample ground floor rooms, and planted with trees and flowers. This property benefits from one of the largest open inner-courtyard settings of this fortified medieval city, once the capital of Malta. Among the ground floor rooms are an old kitchen with ancient stove and a chapel with a beautiful ceiling, having its own entrance from another street. An wide, interior staircase ascends to the “piano nobile” with its long corridor that runs the length of the palazzo, enjoying floods of natural light from its may windows and ending at entry to the magnificent main salon, enjoying a most impressive high ceiling with wooden beams, this room stretches across the entire width of the building. The corridor upstairs wraps around to the opposite side and consists of an enfilade of rooms with French doors that open up to a most pleasant and breath taking upper-level terrace overlooking the impressive inner courtyard, which has been aptly described as a world entirely unto itself. A spiral staircase or “garigor” leads to the roof enjoying a roof top view of the whole ancient town. The property also benefits from a two car garage. This property sits in a truly fairytale setting and enjoys great commercial potential to be converted into a prestigious boutique hotel, due to its sheer size, immense beauty and unparalleled setting with the potential of attracting the most discerning of travelers looking to savor a stay at this unique address enjoying a wealth of features and great history. Mdina is one of Europe’s finest examples of an ancient walled city and played a major role in Malta’s history. The city is a prime source of the islands cultural heritage.
