3 Bedroom House Of Character in Bormla (Cospicua), MaltaRef 36
About this property
this beautifully converted former olive press is a rare gem - one of the few surviving examples of pre-World War II architecture in the harbour area. Meticulously maintained, this extraordinary home offers a timeless blend of heritage, space, and versatility. Every wall within this property tells a story.
From original architectural features to fascinating ship graffiti believed to date back to the Knights and British eras, each corner invites discovery and admiration. The property is thoughtfully laid out across three floors and benefits from three separate entrances, including one from a different street which presents an excellent opportunity to create a self-contained flat-let without compromising the existing 3-bedroom layout. The main entrance welcomes you into a charming courtyard, beautifully enhanced by a mature pomegranate tree and an olive tree.
An old staircase connects all levels, preserving the home’s authentic character. The middle floor hosts a combined kitchen and dining area overlooking the courtyard, alongside a bathroom, a comfortable sitting room, and a bedroom with access to a private terrace leading directly to the secondary entrance. An intermediate level features a second bedroom with street views.
On the upper floor, a spacious living room with impressive 4.6-metre-high ceilings opens onto a large, sunlit terrace. This level also includes an additional bedroom and bathroom. Further enhancing the property is the roof level, offering breathtaking panoramic views of the Three Cities, Valletta, and the surrounding harbour.
There is also potential for further development, subject to planning. The ground floor presents a blank canvas, currently comprising three additional rooms that could be transformed into guest accommodation, a wellness area, private quarters, or any bespoke concept to suit your lifestyle. A truly distinctive home that seamlessly combines history, character, and opportunity ideal for those seeking something exceptional.
