Formerly a 17th century mill, The Malt House is a striking Grade II listed detached home set in the valley between Painswick and Stroud, surrounded by unspoilt Cotswold countryside. Its limestone elevations, stone mullion windows and stone slate roof give the building a real sense of history, while inside the property retains considerable character throughout — inglenook fireplaces, exposed timbers and a warmth that only an old building can offer.
The accommodation spans three floors and extends to around 2,430 sq ft. On the ground floor, two characterful reception rooms each have their own fireplace, while the well-fitted kitchen to the rear is arranged around a large central breakfast bar with an Aga and separate hob. The first floor has a generous landing that works well as a study or playroom, two double bedrooms and a bathroom. On the top floor are two further double bedrooms with built-in storage and lovely views, served by a second bathroom.
Outside, a large gravelled driveway provides private parking for several vehicles. The gardens wrap around the property, predominantly to the rear and laid mostly to lawn with mature hedging and trees, alongside a useful timber outbuilding.
