The Old Malthouse is a wonderful country property offering flexible and generous reception space balanced by four characterful bedrooms (two of which have en suite bathrooms), along with two sizeable family bathrooms.
A central hallway with galleried landing above is found in the centre of the house, flanked on one side by the living room and home office, and on the other by the kitchen breakfast room and dining room. All of these principal spaces have wonderful traditional features including exposed brickwork, beams and fireplaces. Both the kitchen breakfast room and living room have immediate access out to landscaped terraced areas, ideal for outdoor entertaining. The kitchen is beautifully appointed with a range of solid wood units. There is an adjacent utility room and pantry that allow for useful practical areas.
A wonderful principal bedroom suite is found on the first floor with a beautifully appointed en suite bathroom, and country views. A galleried landing connects the three remaining double bedrooms, one of which has an en suite bathroom with the remaining two bedrooms served from the the family bathrooms.
Annexe
Converted by the current owners, generous detached annexed accommodation provides a wonderful modern open-plan living space with a kitchen to one end. A double bedroom and bathroom complete the accommodation.
The annexe has its own private outdoor space separate from the main house. Attached to the annexe is a single garage which provides excellent storage but could also allow for a second bedroom, if required.
Garden and Grounds
The Old Malthouse is approached via a large, gravelled driveway with adequate parking. The grounds have been divided into a number of areas providing individual seating and entertainment spaces. Of particular note is a raised barbeque area to the rear which enjoys far-reaching views over the surrounding fields. The gardens are beautifully maintained with a number of mature planted beds, lawn and ornate shrubbery.
Agents note
The access road is unadopted and shared between the three neighbouring houses.
