St. Paul's Bay - Farmhouses

Set within one of the most enchanting and private valleys in Wardija, this exceptional 20,000 sqm countryside estate is a rare sanctuary where mature woodland, terraced landscapes, and authentic Maltese heritage come together to create a truly irreplaceable retreat.

A wide and perfectly level plateau greets you at the entrance — an impressive arrival space ideal for a private tennis court, sculpture garden, or formal landscaping. From here, the land gently unfolds into a dramatic, terraced landscape shaped by beautiful traditional rubble walls, many of which are partially covered in greenery, giving the entire estate a timeless, organic charm.

Scattered across the property is an extraordinary variety of mature trees, creating natural shading, privacy, colour and texture throughout the seasons. These include
Aleppo pine (Pinus halepensis),
Carob trees (Ceratonia siliqua),
Eucalyptus,
Cypress (Cupressus sempervirens),
Olive trees (Olea europaea),
Lemon and Orange citrus trees,
Fig (Ficus carica), and
Palm species (Phoenix spp.).
This mix of Mediterranean and woodland species makes the estate feel like a private botanical garden.

Adding further depth and historical authenticity, the estate includes several traditional Maltese features, most notably a charming Girna — a stone hut historically used for agricultural purposes, now a unique architectural element that enriches the character and heritage of the land.

The property also benefits from approximately 450 sqm of greenhouse structures, offering potential for hobby agriculture, an eco-retreat concept, boutique cultivation, or landscaped winter gardens. These features reflect the estate’s agricultural roots while providing usable, functional spaces for modern living.

Positioned strategically on a lower natural terrace, the residence enjoys exceptional privacy and unobstructed valley views. The home offers around 170 sqm of liveable space spread across three levels, with large apertures and outdoor terraces designed to frame the expansive countryside. Whether renovated as a serene weekend retreat or transformed into a luxurious signature residence, this structure provides a solid foundation for a remarkable residential project.

The pool area, carved into terraced stonework and bordered by mature trees, offers an intimate oasis — a place where tranquillity, nature, and panoramic views merge effortlessly. The surrounding terraces provide multiple zones for lounging, dining, and entertaining.

From every angle, the estate breathes calm and seclusion. The combination of woodland, fruit trees, terraced agricultural land, rubble walls, and sweeping valley vistas creates a sense of harmony that is impossible to replicate under today’s development restrictions.

This is more than a property — it is a once-in-a-lifetime private haven, ideal for clients seeking land, privacy, authenticity, and a connection to nature. With its rare scale, topography, mature vegetation, historical features, and development potential, this Wardija estate stands among the very finest countryside holdings on the island.
