Located in Hope Square, Groves Malthouse is an iconic Grade II* listed building, which dominates this picturesque area of Weymouth. Offered for sale within this striking development is a rarely available, second floor, executive apartment boasting three bedrooms, en-suite shower room, family bathroom and wonderful open plan sitting / kitchen / dining area. Externally, the apartment further benefits from secure gated parking and a useful storage area.  
 
Access to the development is via a 'museum' communal area showcasing the features and history of the building as a brewery malthouse with a lift and stairs to all floors.  Within the apartment, a spacious entrance hallway hosts a utility cupboard and doors to all principal rooms .  The centrepiece of this apartment is undoubtedly the expansive open plan sitting / dining / kitchen.  With natural light flooding in from four windows overlooking the courtyard area and wonderful original features, including exposed brickwork walls and cast iron pillars, this really is a stunning room.  Measuring in excess of 11 metres this room is large enough to enable distinct zoning of lounge and dining furniture as well as a well-appointed kitchen area.  The kitchen features a good range of base and eye level cabinets with appliances including a range cooker, extractor, fridge, freezer and dishwasher included within the sale.    

The main bedroom is a well-proportioned double room with ample space for freestanding furniture and is enhanced by an en-suite shower room comprising a vanity wash hand basin and WC with double width shower cubicle and complementary tiling to the walls.  The additional bedrooms are both double rooms.  All bedrooms benefit natural light from side aspect windows.  Completing the accommodation is the family bathroom with panelled bath, pedestal wash hand basin and low level WC.  

Externally, the building is set within a well-maintained, gated, cobbled courtyard with specimen planting and two communal visitors parking spaces.  Accessed from the front of the building is a secure storage area, ideal for housing outdoor leisure equipment such as bicycles and paddleboards or kayaks.  The apartment enjoys an allocated covered parking space within a carport.  

Hope Square is host to restaurants, cafes and a public house and is within a short stroll of the inner harbour area.  Weymouth Town Centre is also within easy access of this exceptional apartment, with a plethora of eateries and shops, theatre and, of course the esplanade and beach, recently voted the best beach in the UK by The Times.  Newtons Cove and Nothe Gardens are a couple of minutes walk away and offer wonderful coastal walks.
