House of Character, Ghaxaq

Recently renovated, this charming freehold House of Character, dates back to the 1700s and is nestled in the heart of a quaint village of Ghaxaq situated in the southern part of the island, hosting a smaller than usual number of inhabitants making this village highly desirable.
