1 THE NEW SEAFRONT RESIDENCES

YOUR FRONT ROW SEAT Built on a secluded peninsula at the mouth of Marsamxett harbour, Tigné Point is surrounded on all sides by more than just the Mediterranean sea.

Adjacent to the peninsula is the modern residential town of Sliema: with its paved seafront promenades, beaches, shops and bustling café life.

2 YOUR FRONT ROW SEAT Built on a secluded peninsula at the mouth of Marsamxett harbour, Tigné Point is surrounded on all sides by more than just the Mediterranean sea. Across the harbour lies Malta s historic fortified capital city Valletta, a UNESCO world heritage site encompassed within imposing 17th century bastions. Adjacent to the peninsula is the modern residential town of Sliema: with its paved seafront promenades, beaches, shops and bustling café life. Yet unlike so much of Malta, Tigné Point is also a retreat from the surrounding hubbub. With ample underground parking, the entire complex was planned to be fully pedestrianised and car-free. Little can be heard In the resulting tranquility, except perhaps the sound of waves lapping the foreshore nearby. Tigné Point is more than just an idyllic residential environment; it is also home to Malta s largest shopping mall, a host of eateries and cafés and, shortly, a new flagship business centre overlooking a vibrant town square. THE LATEST CHAPTER IN THE TIGNÉ POINT STORY IS A NEW BLOCK OF SEAFRONT RESIDENCES CALLED Q1

3 TIGNÉ POINT TIGNÉ POINT Tigné Point is an award-winning, brown-field development recognised today as one of Malta s most exclusive addresses. All of the 281 homes placed on the market to date have been sold to a wide mix of local and overseas buyers from countries all over the world. With strong resale and rental values, the properties are especially desirable among Malta s elite, leisure-seekers from around the world and discerning investors. Tigné Point is also an escape, combining a tranquil enclave of natural beauty with 21st century town-planning to create a vibrant and exciting urban destination: a perfect balance of leisure and living. SLIEMA is one of the most popular locations in the Maltese Islands, offering residents and visitors an eclectic array of sights and activities, typical of the diversity that attracts so many tourists to Malta. With its blend of high street shopping, waterfront restaurants and cafés, and its rocky beaches lined by paved promenades, it is perhaps unsurprising that Sliema has grown from humble 19th century origins to become an established residential, leisure and commercial hub in its own right: attracting a large expat community in the process. Whether for a boat trip to the capital Valletta, or a short bus ride to the Malta s nightlife mecca Paceville little more than a kilometre away, Sliema is central, convenient and well-connected.

INTRODUCING Q1 Rising to one side of Tigné Point is Q1: a 13-storey block of 38 luxurious apartments which represents the latest phase of the development.

Only a quiet footpath separates the apartments from the sea and this leads to the newly restored Fort Tigné nearby: a monument rich in memories of the site s colourful history.

4 INTRODUCING Q1 Rising to one side of Tigné Point is Q1: a 13-storey block of 38 luxurious apartments which represents the latest phase of the development. At a glance, Q1 distinguishes itself from the rest of the complex by its sheer proximity to the shore and its wide frontage of panoramic sea views. Only a quiet footpath separates the apartments from the sea and this leads to the newly restored Fort Tigné nearby: a monument rich in memories of the site s colourful history. MANY OF THE Q1 LIVING QUARTERS AND BEDROOMS ARE DIRECTLY ON THE WATER S EDGE, AND THEIR VIEWS AND PROXIMITY TO THE SEA ARE QUITE SIMPLY UNIQUE Yet for all its seclusion, Q1 is nonetheless literally a stone s throw away from all the amenities at Tigné Point, including a fabulous shopping mall, a host of popular restaurants and caféterias, and Pjazza Tigné, the bustling heart of the development and the largest public square in the Sliema district. In any seafront location, windows and terraces are so much more than just glass and space. In Q1, they represent a key element to the concept of a unique living experience that lies at the heart of Tigné Point. The architects at aom Partnership have designed a block that is tailored to its unique setting and which rises iconically from the foreshore below.

5 INTERIOR DESIGN The new Q1 residences include interior design crafted by leading Maltese architect/ interior designer Martin Xuereb. Collaborating with his son and two daughters, all of whom are architects or interior designers in their own right, Xuereb blends the vitality of youth with years of experience. MARTIN XUEREB WE THOUGHT THAT THE UNIQUENESS OF THE SITE MERITED AN EQUALLY UNIQUE DESIGN WORTHY OF ITS CLIENTELE His aim was to complement the stunning view of the sea and entrance to the Grand Harbour with an equally stunning interior. To make the most of each residence, Xuereb designed layouts that make maximum use of every centimetre of space. He added glossy, matt and reflective surfaces, rich timbers and luxurious flooring.

Add to that some 30 square meters of front terrace and a bright semidetached configuration and you have a timeless family apartment which benefits from far reaching views out to sea and the serenity of a foreshore garden to the west. If entertaining, sipping sundowners and yacht-watching is your thing, then look no further. A CLASSIC, CORNER 3 BED LAYOUT WITH GORGEOUS HORIZON VIEWS. THE PERFECT FAMILY HOME. Arguably the pick of the crop, this is an apartment that redefines waterfront living. Spread over 224 square meters and commanding a frontage of some 34 meters, this layout provides both living and sleeping quarters with views directly onto the water or overlooking Malta s capital city, Valletta. A regular, square-type plan provides for an efficient and well apportioned layout and a combination of rich finishing materials including porcelain gres and parquet combine to create a warm luxurious feel. THE RESULT IS A VIEW THAT WOULD COMPARE WELL TO THAT FROM THE BRIDGE OF AN OCEAN LINER.

They have also been engineered to facilitate the provision of the latest in ICT communication and broadband technology. Thanks to a joint venture set up between Midi plc and Siemens S.p.A, a state-of-the-art Network Operating Centre is controlled 24 hours a day ensuring the smooth running of all operations in real time and providing constant security and peace of mind. Tigné Point s heating, ventilation and airconditioning systems are underpinned by the latest in green technology that is both cost-efficient and sustainable. Using sea water sourced onsite as the constant cooling agent, the HVAC system offers considerable energy savings bolstered by a computerised Climate Control System that ensures maximum efficiency and almost negligible wastage. This innovative system complies with the Kyoto Convention Protocol and permits Green Belt acknowledgements. ACCESS CONTROL Keyless smart card access provides residents with convenience, flexibility and security. This innovative technology is backed by a 24/7 monitoring service providing simple and efficient solutions for extra key cards, lost cards and the ability to pre-programme access dates and times if required. TELEPHONY SIS ltd also offer high-speed IT connectivity as well as telephony services backed by an on site customer care office that provides residents with the most up-to-date communication technology available. Upon entering this bright, two-bed corner apartment one is immediately drawn by the arresting views of Fort Tigné and Fort St Elmo. Ranked amongst Malta s most important military fortifications, these two landmarks have left their indelible marks on the island s fascinating history and are now both undergoing painstaking restoration after decades of neglect. This captivating view also takes in the tireless activity of yachts and ships at the harbour mouth as well as the tranquil waterfront promenade that snakes its way around the peninsula. Solutions and Infrastructure Services (SIS) Ltd, a joint venture between Midi plc, the developers of Tigné Point and Siemens S.p.A. provides innovative and effective telephony, internet and building technology solutions and services as well as centralised HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems) to Tigné Point and beyond. A COMFORTABLE HOME, AN UNFORGETTABLE VIEW AND A SECURE RENTAL INVESTMENT. *Layouts may vary marginally between floors.

8 LIVING AT TIGNÉ POINT Conceived from the outset as a managed, self-contained enclave stemming from a single vision, Tigné Point offers a living, working and leisure environment designed with one specific goal in mind: to meet all relevant exigencies with minimal stress and effort. All facilities are strategically located within a short walk from any part of the development; and with an eclectic array of services available on site, the residential aspect of the project would rival most larger towns for choice and convenience. Nearby amenities include in-house estate management services, boutique and international shopping outlets, swimming facilities, a gym, cafés, restaurants, a supermarket and pharmacy, waterfront walkways and over 1,000 public underground car parking spaces; all combining to ease life s day to day engagements. Perhaps the most important contributions to sustainability and lifestyle enjoyment in the planning of Tigné Point was the creation of a master plan that included mixed-use facilities that cut down on the need to use one s car and to eliminate all vehicle routes above ground throughout the development. In line with this innovative development, serious consideration was given to the supply and retention of water on the site. Beneath each residential court at Tigné Point there is a sizeable rainwater reservoir. The effect of this is twofold in that it serves all the landscaping irrigation needs of the entire complex and is readily available should fire-fighting personnel ever require it. The separation of waste at source is facilitated by the provision of waste separation facilities in the substructure levels of Tigné Point. Domestic waste is collected daily and there is a scheme in place for the frequent collection of all recyclable materials. Designated recycling skips enable the segregation and collection of paper, plastic, glass and metal. Tigné Point was designed to eliminate practically all vehicular traffic, largely through the use of ample parking built underground and through the strategic positioning of all amenities within walking distance of all parts of the complex. Over 30 per cent of the development is reserved for landscaped open space, allowing residents and visitors to stroll freely or relax in the piazza without the inconvenience of noise, fumes and traffic congestion.
