With origins dating from the 18th century, The Malt House is an elegant, four-storey period property, which enjoys views to the Cathedral, and has been the subject of extensive, sympathetic restoration and refurbishment over recent years.

In 2017 a Heritage Award in recognition of the quality of the conservation work carried out was granted. Inside the home, retained period features now blend seamlessly with contemporary interior styling to create a stunning home perfectly suited to both entertaining guests and modern family living with high specification including Lutron Homeworks lighting control system, electric roman blinds and Sonos sound system. At the rear, a copper "floating" roofed extension offers a striking, contrasting design, without compromising the architectural integrity of the house. This provides an impressive Bulthaup fitted kitchen incorporating Gaggenau appliances, Miele dishwasher and Quooker tap, along with a dining area, filled with natural light.

Floor to ceiling glazed sliding doors connect the inside with outside with kitchen and courtyard both laid with "Buscot" seasoned limestone floor. The kitchen has underfloor heating and enjoys the view of Cathedral spire. The adjacent family/sitting room features exposed beams, wide oak floor-boards and a central doublesided wood-burning stove providing an area for relaxed sitting, with a more formal drawing room to the front of the house. A cloakroom with "Mallory" limestone floor is located on the ground floor behind a faux bookcase door.

On the first floor, there are three double bedrooms, with the principal room having a part-vaulted ceiling with beams, a large conservation roof light, brick fireplace and chimney breast and a luxurious en suite shower room concealed behind a ‘library’ door, featuring a Hansgrove Rainmaker shower. This shower room has a "Sacho" limestone floor and a silver travertine feature wall, with a flush fitted limestone bespoke solid carved shower tray.

One of the bedrooms is currently in use as a study for those wanting a comfortable home office space. A family bathroom is located at this level, finished with Lefroy Brooks fittings, a roll top bath with shower attachment and "Mallory" limestone floor. The first floor features original floorboards to the bedrooms and bathrooms with underfloor heating. A further staircase rises to the second floor which comprises a stylish bedroom with en suite facilities, and featuring a free-standing, roll-top bath with Hansgrohe single lever waterfall bath mixer.

Stairs from the sitting room give access to a basement room which has a second kitchen/utility fitted by Sylvarna with a full range of units including a Miele fridge, freezer, washing machine, dryer and a storage area, with options for additional uses, currently used as a cinema room.

Outside

The south-west facing secluded courtyard garden provides a haven in which to relax and enjoy outdoor dining and entertaining with a feature fountain, lighting, flint walls and climbing scented plants including jasmine and Armandii clematis with areas for displays of architectural potted plants.

A stable door leads to the spacious garage which has fitted shelving, lighting, power, and an automatic Hormann door.
