Rabat (Gozo), Farmhouse

A very rare 17th-century farmhouse sharing an entrance hall and featuring imposing stone archways leading to beautifully south facing large garden ( 80ft x 88ft -- tlett sieghan u nofs) with mature olive and palm trees and a superb swimming pool (12m x 13.5m). The surrounding patios (over 100m)  with a built-in shower and BBQ area enjoy great views of the impressive Citadel and the formidable bastions, particularly at night.

 

Accommodation comprises a wide hall, a large room presently used as a games room, a spacious arched mill room with fitted kitchen/breakfast, a master bedroom with ensuite bathroom, main bathroom with bidet and a box room under the stairway.

 

A traditional, wide stone staircase leads up to an airy wraparound, double wall loggia that opens to three large rooms, two ensuite bathrooms and a large open terrace overlooking pastoral Gelmus hill and beyond. An outside stairway with ferrabattuto railings leads down to the pool area and garden.

 

There are five artesian wells, three of which are interconnected to each other with tunnels dating back to the Knights of St.John inside the natural rock. An automatic pump supplies most of the water to two reservoirs on the roof.

 

Great location within walking distance to all basic amenities including bus terminus, Citadel, restaurants, etc.
