Marsa - Palace/Castle/Manor

MARSA- This Palazzo is a property in the centre of Malta and only ten minutes walk to Valletta.

Being a very short distance away from Valletta one can have the luxury of having a large Palazzo with a spacious garden and garage for a fraction of the price that such a property would cost if this existed in Valletta.

The water front is just two streets down from where the villa is situated and plans are already in hand to extend the water front into berthing facilities for large yachts.

This Palazzo is situated in the centre of Marsa opposite the Holy Trinity Church, it is elevated and therefore looks down onto the church parvis. Being elevated the villa enjoys the views and tranquility.
