HISTORY
Our client has kindly provided us with the following information:
Now call “The Maltings”, the property was originally called “Stalham Maltings”.
The building is a substantial “floor” Maltings with many original features.
The middle section was built and commissioned in 1867 and has a plaque confirming the date which is now a feature of the top floor “Office” at the front end of the complete structure, with the change of access from Wherry to Road/Rail and South end of the Structure was added and built across the original Dyke and alongside the Furnace end. Finally after many years of successful production the North end was added and a plaque is in place dated by the then owners J & D Walker 1937 of Scotland.
Alongside the front of the Maltings building there is a World War 1 Pill Box used to defend the Bridge during the early 1900’2 but when viewed now the later 1937 addition obstructs the line of fire for the occupants. This particular Pill Box is now a Pokeman listing.
The original “Steep” tank is still in place and the drainage system also but does not form part of current use, similarly the access shafts for loading the grain into the tank are still in place.
The furnace is no longer in place and none of the operational equipment exists within the building. Some special Tiles which formed the floor above the furnace onto which the Grain was placed for roasting have been found and restored and represent a beautiful image of functionality and design, similarly the lower working floor is constructed of Norfolk Red Brick.
The upper working floor is covered in around 2,8000 Clay Pantiles that the grain was thrown onto and a system of Ploughing was adopted using Wooden and Metal Malt ploughs drawn through the grain and the Maltster used their experience to maintain the depth of the Grain to adjust its temperature.
After its life as a functioning Maltings its use developed more to the environment in which it stands as a place where water craft were produced and maintained. The front end of the building was once used by a Boatbuilder to produce a craft for the former Prime Minister Edward Heath.
__________
HOUSE (residential use, residential rates: D)
The main house is entered to the left of the building into a hallway, turning left you will lead through into the sitting room which has wooden floors and exposed beams. The sitting room then steps up a couple of steps to additional living space, through to the kitchen. The kitchen continues the exposed beams and wooden flooring and has a good-sized window looking out onto the River Ant. You will find an electric Range cooker, a large kitchen island, wooden units with granite worktops and a large walk-in pantry. As you continue round you will find the dining room which overlooks the sitting room area. The sitting room has a door that leads out to the garden room area, overlooking the garden, whilst another door by the kitchen opens out to the sun deck and looks out over the water.
A staircase from the ground floor entrance hall leads up to the central first floor landing area, providing access to all of the rooms on this level.
The main bedroom is located on the corner and enjoys a double aspect, this then leads through to a dressing room and en suite. The four other bedrooms are served by the family bathroom whilst a laundry room completes the first-floor accommodation.
A further staircase leads up from the first-floor landing to the unconverted attic room.
__________
WAREHOUSE/WORKSHOP/SHOP (currently commercial use, business rates RV Gross Charge £6,736.50pa)
The 14000 sq.ft warehouse is currently set over 3 main floors (the lowest level has reduced ceiling height) and is mainly open plan, with a few smaller internal rooms/divisions.
At the road end there is a customer facing shop (with off-road parking) and office space above.
The warehouse is mainly used for storage and small fabrication works for the plastic based company currently being operated by our client.
The warehouse offers an incredible potential opportunity to be developed into either a large single dwelling or numerous apartments, of course subject to planning and the necessary consents, which have not been obtained yet.
__________
OUTSIDE
The Maltings sits on a plot of almost 1 acre (stms) with ample off-road parking to the front and the side of the property. The garden offers an open space with mature trees. There is easy access to the River Ant from the property with a private slip and mooring leading out through the Marina. The property has a decking area to the rear to enjoy being emersed in the wildlife and nature of the River Ant. A Pill Box now remains to the front of the property, and still stands inside the curtilage of the property. A small electric substation is located in the garden and is fenced off.
__________
SITUATION
The property is located by Wayford Bridge, a village on the River Ant. Due to the property being based in the Broads National Park, on the doorstep you will find many wonderful walks and areas to explore and can also embrace the Broads and everything that it has to offer such as wildlife, sailing and fishing.
