The benefits and beauty of living in a waterfront home are as vast as the stunning and unobstructed views enjoyed by these homes. Those who enjoy activities such as fishing and sailing will feel perfectly in their element, particularly if their residence is situated close to a Marina, harbour or river bank, offering direct access to the water. Simply being away from the hustle and bustle and breathing in the fresh air is already inspiring and restorative.
One of the most fascinating aspects of waterfront living is the fact that the proximity to the water inevitably affects life in the home, creating a unique offering and making it a distinctive lifestyle in its own right. The fact that this aspect is not available everywhere and is tied to the geographical location of the property increases its appeal and exclusivity. In fact, there is a common trend shared by numerous markets selling waterfront properties whereby the demand for these homes tends to be larger than the supply because they are highly desired and properties on the waterfront are in shorter supply than those further away. As a result, waterfront homes retain and increase in value over time, making them an excellent investment. In addition to a great resale value, these homes can also be an excellent rental investment. People want to rent these properties out due to the amazing views and lifestyle benefits they offer.
Although certain aspects of waterfront living can be enjoyed anywhere around the world – glorious skies and views and a high level of privacy and seclusion - waterfront lifestyles in different locations can be highly diverse, offering something new to look forward to with each destination.
Palm Jumeirah, Dubai, UAE: A world-renowned residential and tourism destination. It is home to luxurious villas, five-star hotels and white sandy beaches. Residents of Palm Jumeirah enjoy a distinguished address, spectacular views, glorious sunshine, an array of marine life and an exclusive lifestyle close to shops and entertainment facilities, yet away from the buzz of the mainland city centre. This penthouse is the definition of glamorous waterfront living, featuring elegantly renovated interiors and architectural elements, meticulously designed bedrooms, and a functional open terrace.

Malta: The lifestyle offering on the island of Malta, located in the heart of the Mediterranean Sea, is highly defined by its island status. With a land area covering just over 316 km2, the sea is part and parcel of the local lifestyle and visible even from inland areas around the island. Although the country is tiny, Malta’s shorelines are diverse and dotted with quaint fishing villages, sandy and rocky beaches, historic fortifications, yacht marinas, popular tourist resorts and leisure establishments.
Waterfront homes in Malta enjoy mesmerizing open sea views of the Mediterranean waters. It is good to know that numerous luxury lifestyle developments on the island are located in very close proximity to the sea, offering a high-end property for sale in Malta, residences benefiting from the peace of mind and tranquillity brought along by a sea view such as the one enjoyed from this penthouse. Due to the shape of its harbour area, which Malta is historically famous for, this property does not only enjoy unparalleled sea views but directly looks out onto the almost iconic skyline of Malta’s capital city of Valletta.

“Where none intrudes, by the deep sea, and music in its roar”, writes Lord Byron. And even for less romantic hearts, open waters are often a representation of freedom and the sensational mysteries of the world, lying out there, waiting to be discovered. More than the eye-appeasing view, waterfront living offers a heart-appeasing lifestyle, allowing the mind to wander while the heart remains anchored at home.
