Types and bedrooms

The mix is 199 houses, 84 apartments, 19 commercial units, 3 townhouses, 3 plots of land and one penthouse. Two-bedroom listings lead with 99, followed by 87 three-bedroom, 34 one-bedroom and 25 four-bedroom. Maltese houses of character often have limestone walls, high ceilings and a roof terrace; ask about damp, structure and permits for alterations.

The median home is about 130 m², larger than most Maltese apartments, because the stock leans toward terraced houses spread over several floors. Buyers who want a lower-maintenance purchase should look at the 84 apartments, many in small blocks or converted buildings, and ask about lifts, parking and any shared-roof arrangements.
