A magnificent and grand 18th century PALAZZO located in the old village of Zebbug, close to the parish church. This historic and authentic period property was originally constructed under the order of Grand Master De Rohan back in the 1700's for one of Malta's oldest noble families. This imposing and wide-fronted Palazzo has 5 entrances and a further entrance into an annexe building. Access to the property is via a massive two-leaf wooden door. A horse-carriage entrance leads onto a stunning drawing room, home to four 4.5 metre high statues representing the 4 seasons. From this stately room, three large wood and glass doors lead out onto the garden. The property also comprises nine rooms, living quarters, a terrace and old-world features such as vaulted ceilings, stone ovens and chimneys. Access to the 2nd floor is gained via a stone stairway and includes 6 large rooms, terraces and a grand Sala Nobile. The mature garden has an area of approximately 3,500sqm consisting predominantly of 300 orange trees and an enormous, mature pine tree, a 'Belvedere', gravity-fed water irrigation system and original stone troughs. Nine deep wells are replenished with rain water from the various roofs and street catchments. This outstanding property also features a cellar covering the whole area under the existing building footprint. A further floor can be constructed to provide further living and sleeping quarters, ideal for the entrepreneur wishing to convert the property into an upmarket Boutique Hotel. An adjoining property can be be purchased at extra cost. The property needs renovation to regain its former splendour but is structurally sound with all original features intact. Viewing is a must!
