The house name Il-Veduta is in the owner's native Maltese language and means 'a beautiful view' (Bellevue) which is certainly the case. Open view over the rolling Zagorje hills with the Medvednica (Sljeme) mountain in the background provides an abundance of green in all of its shades and throughout the seasons. Il-Veduta is at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac with no immediate neighbours in front or to the sides, and an acre of land with a lawn, a park, a small vineyard and an orchard providing perfect privacy for a relaxing time.
