Welcome to The Malthouse, a secret escape nestled in the rolling hills of the Sussex downs, where Sir Laurence Olivier and Dame Joan Plowright lived for over 60 years. This Elizabethan farmhouse was originally purchased as a family home for their parents, but the couple soon developed and landscaped the plot, moving in themselves. The property has been a haven for the Olivier family, hosting numerous gatherings and celebrations, including a birthday party for Sir Laurence and a dinner with Paul Newman. The house features a cozy snug dining room with a roaring fireplace, where many memorable moments were shared. The property also boasts a stunning master bedroom with breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside, where the couple would often rehearse lines for their next performances. The Malthouse has been lovingly maintained and is filled with character, with features such as a tennis court, indoor swimming pool, and self-contained yoga and art studios. The property is a true reflection of the Olivier's love for each other, their family, and their passion for the arts.
