INTRODUCTION

Chute House is a remarkable home to say the very least and the outward appearance, especially from the front, is modest and deceiving as this home boasts a gross internal floor area in excess of 2800 sq ft. The house is spacious, beautifully presented and with immense character throughout.

The large agricultural building that now makes up The Maltings was built in the 1850’s to store and malt barley brought in from the local farms. It remained in operation for about a hundred years before going derelict in the 1950’s. It wasn’t until 2004 that a talented local architect and developers converted this building into five residential units. Chute House is the largest of these incorporating many original Victorian features.

The ground floor has three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The principal bedroom is ensuite and the two further bedrooms share the family bathroom. One has a very useful and cosy sitting area. There is a large inner hall which has been creatively turned into a study area with fitted desk.

The first floor is dominated by a fantastic sitting room with full height ceilings and exposed beams. There are stairs up to a separate snug with a beautiful exposed cast iron truss. On this floor is the living kitchen which has fitted appliances and a central island, a spacious dining area as well as utility, pantry and cloak room. Long views to the west across open countryside are enjoyed from the kitchen windows.

The second floor has a light and bright fourth bedroom with ensuite.

Outside the house has private parking to the front and rear along with a garage. The rear garden is bijou, professionally landscaped and ideal for outside entertaining and dining.
