The Old Rectory sits behind wrought iron railings and electric gates on High Street in Whitwell, opposite St. Lawrence’s Church.
With period features in every room, the Grade II-listed property features high coved ceilings, original fireplaces, a stunning staircase and stone mullion windows with leaded panels.
Designed by John Loughborough Pearson, a renowned British architect, the property was built originally for Canon Mason, a former Rector of Whitwell and later principal of the Anglican Theological College in Umtata, South Africa.
It is now for sale for the first time in almost 50 years, having been within the same family since 1929.
From the large gravel driveway, the main entrance to the house is within a stone archway, with a traditional pitch pine door that opens to a vestibule.
The bright hallway features a staircase with turned balustrades and a large window with 12 leaded panes.
Main reception rooms include a spacious drawing room and a formal dining room, both with open fireplaces with stone surrounds and oak mantels.
Connecting doors means these rooms can become single and large - so ideal for larger gatherings.
Further to these is a useful study and a homely sitting room.
An attractive dining kitchen with distinct cooking and dining areas has fitted units, granite worktops and an island with seating, plus a four-oven gas Aga.
A cloakroom, wc and laundry room off an inner hallway complete the ground floor accommodation.
From the first floor gallery landing, that connects to a second landing with its own staircase, are two extensive bedroom suites, each with their own bathroom.
With three further bedrooms is a fitted-out home office, within the former small chapel.
Two traditional style bathrooms have roll top baths.
There are two bedrooms at second floor level, one of which is used currently as a studio, while a large bathroom has a modern suite with spa bath.
Lawned grounds include a tiered south-facing garden to the rear of the house, with a stone flagged terrace.
There is woodland, a pond with water features, and a full-size tennis court, while a pathway leads to a paddock garden with mature trees, and an orchard with apple, plum, pear, quince and medlar trees.
Surrounded by countryside, this conservation area property sits close to the borders of Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire and South Yorkshire
