The achievements of A G Boniface & Sons Ltd to meticulously
restore this Grade II* Listed 17th Century building are phenomenal.
Tree ring dating indicates a construction date of 1612 with one
beam dating back to 1396. Existing as a Malthouse for approximately
250 years, and then a builder’s yard for 150, every effort has been
made to maintain the provenance and history of the building.
Today The Malthouse offers contemporary, characterful,
generously proportioned, energy efficient accommodation that
reflects the demands of modern living whilst maintaining the
character and atmosphere of days gone by.
On the ground floor there is a large kitchendiningliving room
with the advantage of a utility room and ground floor wc. The
kitchen is fitted with a range of base and tall units with solid
oak work tops over, and fitted with an integrated electric hob,
electric oven; and dishwasher. The kitchendiningliving room
flooring has been relaid using the original handmade bricks, which
even have the makers fingerprints, and which really add to the
ambience of the room.
Stairs lead up to the first floor with oak hand rails At the
front of the building there is a stunning triple aspect lounge –
full of light and character, with French doors opening onto a
galvanized balcony with steps leading down to the courtyard below.
On this floor is a shower room and the second bedroom.
On the second floor there is a large main bedroom, again oozing
character and benefitting from useful under eaves storage
cupboards. Also on this floor there is a contemporary styled shower
room, separate wc and a further bedroom.
The Malthouse has the benefit of an A Rated system boiler with a
10 year guarantee providing heating and hot water in a stainless
steel, mains pressure unvented cylinder. The building fabric has
been lined with Newton Membrane and every element insulated to
modern standards including handmade oak joinery incorporating
Heritage double glazed units. Natural light floods the attic floor
via Rooflight Company conservatory rooflights.
Every element of preservation has been given careful
consideration including using reclaimed elm and oak boards for
cupboard doors; a homage wall panel and even repositioning and
renovating the understairs Thunderbox as a window seat.
Outside an attractive walled courtyard leads to the front door
and provides off road parking, and external steps to the first
floor and its “front door”. There is an outside tap and power for
those who wish to have an electric car. In addition there are
electrically operated gates providing access onto East Street.
The Malthouse is quietly positioned within the heart of the town
centre and within walking distance of Tewkesbury’s excellent range
of eateries, supermarkets, shops, leisure and sports facilities. In
addition, the town boasts a modern medical centre and hospital; The
Roses Theatre; and the historic Tewkesbury Abbey.
Centrally situated between Cheltenham (10 miles), Worcester (18
miles), Gloucester (11 miles) M5 J9 (1.5 miles) Ashchurch Station
(2 miles) it is an excellent commuting base.
