I have recently purchased a house in Malta and will be moving out of the Maisonette I currently reside in. It's located in Lija. I have lived here 2 1/2 years when I arrived from Canada and it's been a great place to be. It is on the 1st floor, 3 bedroom and the outdoor space on the roof has unobstructed views of Mdina.
The landlord is fantastic (he's a doctor living the UK but is attentive). I have not experienced any of the horror stories that others have posted about dodgy/nasty landlords with this guy so I recommend him personally. I thought I would throw this out there for any ex-pats who are looking for a place in December.
Rent is €625/PCM.
