Nestled on a quiet street, just a 3-minute walk from the marina and waterfront promenade, this remarkable six-bedroom residence effortlessly blends centuries-old Maltese character with contemporary comfort. From its rooftop terrace overlooking the Grand Harbour and Senglea Marina to its traditional tiled floors and exposed stone walls, Kenn L-Istorja is a warm, elegant sanctuary, perfect for romantic island escapes, family holidays, or cultural retreats.

Throughout the house, original 16th-century features are lovingly preserved, from the Maltese tile floors to the limestone walls, infusing every space with charm and authenticity.
The rooftop terrace, offering panoramic views of the Grand Harbour, is the jewel of the home, a serene spot for morning coffee, sunset wine, or stargazing under the Mediterranean sky.
