Naxxar sits on high ground in the north of Malta. Its historic centre is dominated by the parish church and Palazzo Parisio, a grand palazzo with formal gardens. To the north-east, the ridge of San Pawl tat-Targa is lined with villas and bungalows looking out over the countryside towards the sea.

Why buyers choose Naxxar
- Space — larger plots and gardens than the harbour towns.
- Views — over the north of Malta, towards the coast.
- Community — a traditional village centre with shops, cafés and festas.
- Schools — QSI in Mosta and San Anton in Mġarr are close. See international schools.
Residency buyers
Villas here commonly exceed the MPRP threshold, and the space suits families. Non-EU buyers need an AIP permit, with the higher minimum that applies to houses and villas.
What to check
For villas and bungalows, confirm permits for every extension and pool, the boundaries and access, and any planning applications nearby that could affect the view. Use our due diligence checklist.
