A 300 year old traditional stone wall Gozitan farmhouse passionately restored replete with warmth and character. The house is situated on the outskirts of the village of Gharb, on the northwest corner of the island, and approximately an eight minute drive into the main town of Victoria.
The house consists of a beautiful entrance to an outdoor courtyard which is surrounded by the kitchen/dining area and a sitting area. The dinning room has pinewood flooring and a stone fire place. The living room overlooks the swimming pool, garden and olive orchard. Off of the living room is a TV room. There are four bedrooms, two with en-suite, two additional bathrooms both with showers, and a 5th room ( adjacent to the living room ) presently used as a study which could alternatively be an additional 5th bedroom. In addition, a one car garage, a storage room, wine cellar, refurbished small attic above the master bedroom, and solar water heating.
Outdoors, there is a magnificent swimming pool bordered by natural stone and a large marble terrace, a Koi fish pond, magic garden area, and a 95 tree (5-7 years old) olive orchard. The garden and olive orchard are both fully irrigated from a borehole and three wells. In 2008 it produced 200 litres of an excellent extra-virgin olive oil (pressed in Gozo ), and we estimate 250-300 litres in 2010, as the trees mature. The orchard area is completely surrounded by stone walls, measures approx. 2300 sq. meters and comprises one of the largest private gardens on the island, blessed with sun year round, privacy and tranquility.
This property is truly unique and will be of interest to a family with a passion for year round outdoor life in a mid-Med. setting.
