Description

The charm of this beautiful home is undeniable - timeless brickwork, soft Georgian proportions, and a gentle sense that every room has witnessed moments worth remembering.

A Home with a Past - and a Future to Share

The Maltkiln was originally built in the early 1700s by a Quaker named Naimby, during a period when Castlethorpe was a thriving agricultural settlement, with a manor house and workers’ cottages that shaped village life.

By the 1800s, it became home to a farmer and Maltster, supplying malt to the local brewery using barley dried in the loft - the original loading door still visible in the south gable today.

Where Character Meets Comfort

Inside, the home offers a wonderful balance of period charm and calm, contemporary living. Soft natural light filters through sash windows, while stunning fireplaces provide cosy warmth in the cooler months. Period features are a feast for the eyes, and each room unfolds with ease, offering spaces to gather, to unwind, and to find quiet grounding after busy days.

You can also expect the practical touches a house like this delivers so well, including a pantry, and generous storage throughout.

The heart of the home is its welcoming kitchen and connected sunroom - warm, sociable, and designed for everyday living. The sunroom is a perfect place to take in views of the garden, or even the stars above, through its beautiful, glazed roof. The sitting rooms offer peaceful places to retreat, while the dining room provides a natural setting for celebrations and long, unhurried conversations.

Upstairs, there are four beautifully proportioned bedrooms, two in the Gallery Wing and a further two in the Garden Wing. Each has its own unique vantage point over the gardens or surrounding landscape. There are also two elegant bathrooms, which offer spa-like sanctuary.

This home already has so much to offer, yet for those who may wish to leave their own mark, the generous loft space above offers further potential (subject to consent).

A Garden for all Seasons

To the rear, the well-established walled garden is framed by open countryside views, tranquil and nurturing in equal measure. It’s easy to see why the current owners speak of the garden with such affection. Extending to around one third of an acre, it's a place for wellbeing and reflection, for slow mornings and lingering summer evenings - it has quietly supported every chapter of family life here.

Beyond the entry gates, a generous parking area sits alongside a beautifully crafted oak-framed garage, complete with an electric charging point.

A Home to Grow Into

Whether you dream of hosting, working from home, welcoming guests, or simply slowing the pace, The Maltkiln adapts beautifully. Its layout, proportions, and gentle calm create a rare sense of ease.

And above all, there is a feeling - one that can’t be manufactured.

A sense that you are not just buying a home…

You are becoming part of its story.

A Remarkable Setting

Castlethorpe offers tranquillity, heritage, and the charm of a rural hamlet, while remaining close to Brigg with its excellent schooling, independent shops and coffee houses, small local businesses, and everyday amenities. Scenic walks and welcoming country pubs are close by, creating a lifestyle that feels unhurried yet reassuringly well connected. Championship golf courses, leisure and spa facilities complete the picture, creating a setting that truly offers something for everyone.

A Home Waiting for its Next Custodians

The Maltkiln has been cared for with love, respect, and a deep understanding of its heritage. Now, it awaits the next chapter - a new family ready to appreciate its history, its beauty, and the sense of belonging it so naturally creates.

If you feel drawn to homes with depth, soul, and a story worth continuing, The Maltkiln may be the one that stays with you.
