Charming! The peaceful village of Gharb, situated in the north west part of the island and idyllically positioned on the highest hill and surrounded by Gozo---s most scenic countryside, is home to this delightful farmhouse. This home is within easy walking distance to the highly revered Basilica of Ta--- Pinu, an outstanding shrine and the site of many pilgrimages until this very day. Sitting prettily in the midst of a traditional pjazza and nestled in between other lovingly converted properties, this traditional farmhouse has been painstakingly transformed into a captivating retreat, and undeniably a wonderful abode for family and friends. As you step inside, a sense of warmth sets the pace, with the heart of the home being a double height living room adorned with thick walls, wooden beams, vaulted ceilings and sunlight pouring in through the skylight, large doors and windows which harmoniously extend to the garden, creating a seamless blend of indoor and outdoor living. An outdoor area which is just as impressive! Adjacent to this gorgeous living room is a large dining room bathed in the soft glow of interspersed wall lighting, making it the perfect setting for intimate family diners or festive gatherings with friends, whereas a separate and fully equipped kitchen enjoys every modern convenience coupled with rustic charm. Beyond is a wonderful second living room with a working fireplace which opens up onto the lovely private garden. And nestled within the confines of this gorgeous home is a hidden gem, a 47sqm swimming pool surrounded by a spacious deck area offering complete privacy from the outside world. Undoubtedly an aquatic oasis and a sanctuary for leisure and outdoor living! This is further complimented by a BBQ area which enjoys a large outdoor dining space surrounded with mature trees and flowering plants. The sleeping quarters are located on the upper two levels together with an intermediate floor which are accessible through different stairwells on either side of the ground floor. Five spacious bedrooms compliment this property, each designed to capture the essence of the countryside with large apertures creating an interplay of light and space and a haven of tranquillity. Four bedrooms enjoy their own en-suite bathrooms and lead onto a traditional loggia overlooking the internal courtyard or their own private terrace. A beautiful panorama of rolling hills and mesmerising countryside is a stunning site which greets you from the roof top. It is undoubtedly this vantage point which is breathtaking as well as soothing, and creates an even stronger whim to go out and explore the myriad of countryside lanes that abound. This property is being offered fully furnished, freehold and ready to move into, together with an adjacent unconverted Farmhouse having the potential of two bedrooms and can be considered either as an extension to this home, if the property is utilised for commercial purposes, or as a separate property altogether. This traditional Farmhouse is not just a home! It is a retreat away from the hustle and bustle of the world where you can revel in the simple pleasures of life surrounded by the beauty of nature at its very best.
