High View House

Living up to its name, the vista from High View House, is beautifully breath-taking. The villa is near the quiet village of Nadar, on the east coast of the Maltese island of Gozo, in the cobalt blue waters of the Mediterranean Sea. This six hundred and sixty-five square metre imposing property has four spacious double bedrooms, and can comfortably accommodate up to nine guests, ideal for a large family holiday, or friends’ get-together. This imposing two-storey, detached house, is set on its own grounds, surrounded by high stone walls, and a Mediterranean garden, populated with tall trees and indigenous shrubs.

The property is constructed out of local light stone, with traditional arched windows, which have been carried through in the interiors, with internal arched walls. The house comes complete with on-site parking, complimentary air conditioning and Wi-Fi throughout, and your own private swimming pool. The interiors are classically charming and cosy, it has been furnished with stylish contemporary pieces, and decorated in a subtle palette of soft shades of cream, beige, and grey.

Enter the house at ground floor level, where there is a series of light and airy, cool living spaces, divided by stone arches. The seating area has arched double doors, which open out onto the pool terrace. There is a sofa bed, for one guest, a coffee table and console, a flat-screen satellite television, and a wood-burning fire for those cooler months and evenings. An eight-seater dining set would be ideal for some impressive indoor entertaining. A large white and beige kitchen is fully equipped with all the appliances you will need to cater for your holiday. The first of the four finely dressed bedrooms can be found on this floor. The spacious room has a double bed, wooden furniture, and doors that give access to the terrace, great for a swim before breakfast. A shared bathroom completes this floor. On the first floor, there are three more bedrooms, two with double beds, and a twin room, and two bathrooms, one with a bathtub, and one with a shower.

The grounds and gardens are delightful, commanding a sea view terrace, tall trees for shade, and shrubs for colour in season. There is a free-form, step-entry swimming pool, surrounded by modern sun loungers, and handy side tables. A soft seating spot is perfect for meeting for morning coffee and pre-dinner aperitifs. As dusk falls, feast alfresco at the outdoor dining set, with dishes freshly grilled on the barbeque, and enjoy the view of the sun setting over the horizon, as the stars come out to shine.
