"The Malting House is one of the most significant buildings in the village offering over 6000 sq ft of beautifully presented accommodation. Behind the handsome Grade II Listed fa ade is a very impressive and extremely spacious five bedroom family home plus a second floor apartment created for extended family. The house has undergone a refurbishment in the last few years to create a comfortable and versatile home with a stunning interior design enhanced by the wonderful period features. Beautifully proportioned, the double fronted entrance hall is flanked by the two principal reception rooms. Both rooms are enhanced by large 16 panel south facing windows, and are packed with features including working shutters, tall corniced ceiling, decorative alcoves and wooden floor boards. The stylish d cor continues into the snug sitting room as well as the ground floor bedroom suite. A major feature of the house is the open plan kitchen, dining and living area which is over 30 ft long. The beautifully restored malting oven provides a natural division between a sitting area and the dining area. Underfloor heating flows through into the well equipped kitchen. This is a wonderful space for family living and entertaining with access directly out to the walled courtyard. The first floor principal bedroom suite is truly impressive. With three windows benefitting from far reaching views, it comprises bedroom and sitting area, dressing room and shower room. There are three additional bedrooms, all special in their own right, a central study area plus en suite shower room and family bathroom. The second floor has been designed for extended family and provides a sitting room, kitchen dining room, two double bedrooms, a dressing room and two bathrooms.

Outside

The attractive courtyard garden offers plenty of space for outdoor dining, relaxing and playing. The tall walls provide a backdrop for climbing plants. The smart, recently laid flat stone floors add to the practicality of the area and allow plenty of space for a potted garden alongside the planters full of lavender, that run along two walls. With direct access from the open plan kitchen, a sheltered covered area provides the perfect spot for an outside kitchen making alfresco dining even easier. At the rear of the house is a large gravel parking area with space for around four cars. There is both a water and electricity supply; perfect for those needing an electric charger.

There is also The Catherine Wheel country pub and rooms as well as the village church and GP s surgery. The village offers excellent access to Junction 18 of the M4, taking you either west to Bristol with its International Airport and shopping experiences including Cribbs Causeway, or east to London. It is an ideal position for Bath and Bristol, both cosmopolitan cities enjoying many fine restaurants, specialist shops, museums, and art galleries as well as a superb choice of educational facilities. They also benefit from main line rail services, as does Chippenham railway station, just over one hour to London Paddington.
