Ground Floor
The entrance hallway, with stone flooring and elegant cloakroom, leads seamlessly into the main reception room. Exposed oak beams, 16th-century mullioned windows, and a feature log-burning fireplace create a characterful yet sophisticated environment, perfectly marrying period elegance with modern comfort.

A dedicated office, positioned just off the reception room, provides a tranquil and inspiring workspace.

The heart of the home unfolds in the breakfast room, a light-filled space with solid oak floors and rustic beams. The handcrafted Georgian-style kitchen, with vaulted ceilings, Belfast sink and Quooker tap, quartz worktops, and integrated high-end appliances, combines traditional craftsmanship with contemporary luxury, ideal for both casual family life and entertaining.

For formal occasions, the elegant dining room offers a gracious setting for memorable evenings, while the snug, complete with its own fireplace, provides a cosy sanctuary for reading, yoga, or quiet reflection.

First Floor
A striking oak and glass staircase ascends to the first floor, where the principal suite offers tranquil views over the rolling countryside and a beautifully appointed en suite shower room. Three further double bedrooms, each exquisitely finished, are served by a luxurious family bathroom, complete with a deep freestanding bathtub, overhead shower, and sophisticated contemporary tiling.

Outside
Set within enchanting grounds of approximately 8.26 acres, the gardens of The Old Mill House are as captivating as the home itself. Manicured lawns, mature hedging, and an exquisite Elizabethan Knot Garden create timeless formal beauty, while two private terraces provide idyllic settings for al fresco dining or evening entertaining beneath the stars.

A secluded, hedged area houses a greenhouse, vegetable plot, and small paddock, perfect for those with a passion for sustainable country living. Beyond the formal gardens, a 7.6-acre meadow offers a world of possibilities, from equestrian pursuits to outdoor recreation, all framed by the serene Derbyshire countryside.

The existing stable block and garage benefit from full planning permission for conversion into a two-bedroom holiday cottage, complemented by a new double garage with additional storage. With foundations already in place, this presents a rare opportunity to further enhance and personalise a truly exceptional country estate.
