Cindy Galea says she bought her Ashton Terrace house in Castlecliff for the view - "plain and simple".
Dr Galea liked the early 1900s house which was built by a business couple and later owned by the harbour master, but it required a lot of work to get it back
to its original state.
Today, Dr Galea is happy with the state of the house - and the exceptional views.
"I wanted a view of the ocean and one that did not look down on houses and gardens," she said.
"The ocean puts things into perspective for one - it is mesmerising and ever-changing."
