The Malt House

One in three homeowners aged 55 and over are considering or expected to consider downsizing, according to a study by the International Longevity Centre. The study found that those who downsize, are looking for smaller homes with less maintenance, and also to release equity. For prospective downsizers in East Anglia, the apartments at The Maltings in Newmarket by Cleanslate, offer perfectly proportioned properties, finished with an exceptional standard of specification. The development, which includes the conversion of a former Victorian Malt House, makes for a downsize in unique fashion, combining the historic remnants of the Malthouse with modern functionality and comfort.

Lara Newman, Director at Cleanslate, comments: “It’s been highlighted that downsizers are currently let down by a lack of choice. However the homes at The Maltings, both within the converted Malt House and in the new apartment buildings, offer potential downsizers a brand new selection of unique luxury homes, which are both spacious and functional. Each home has been designed specifically for convenience and comfort, while the history of the site gives the homes character and originality. The Maltings provides potential downsizers with a brilliant option and we’d encourage anyone currently looking for a smaller, comfortable and easy-to-maintain home to visit our show apartment. ”

The development is comprised of two newly constructed separate apartment buildings, each named after local master brewers of the age, alongside the Malt House itself and a row of six four-storey townhouses. The eight Bushel Court apartments are ultra–modern, boast an exceptional specification and are designed for low maintenance living. Residents can enjoy exceptional open plan kitchens and living space, ideal for hosting family and friends. Each apartment boasts two-double bedrooms, accompanied by two stunning bathrooms, while the master bedrooms on the upper floors feature attractive bay windows. Guests also have their own cloakroom.

The exclusive 3-bed duplex apartment in Piper House has also been designed for versatile and low maintenance living. The home adopts a traditional layout over two floors, coupled with superior specification. The apartment includes two bedrooms with two en-suites, a third bedroom and a family bathroom, making it ideal for hosting guests. Residents can also benefit from plenty of storage space, while extra parking is available for visitors.

The Maltings is set in an attractive and convenient location. Newmarket high street is just a seven minute walk away and features a range of cafes, bars, shops and popular high street chains. The area is also home to two racecourses; the Rowley Mile and the July Course, both offering a brilliant day out for the whole family.
