Situation

Sutton Scarsdale is a small historic estate village, conveniently set within easy reach of the M1 Motorway Junction 29, and the town of Chesterfield (being approximately 4.7 miles to the west) with direct rail links to London.
Sutton Manor sits outside of the village centre, backing onto open fields, with a linked independent access to the main house (adjoining range of renovated outbuildings), currently used for general office purposes (B1a).

Description

Sutton Manor is a stunning, renovated Grade II listed oak framed stone house set beneath a graduated stone slate roof, completely overhauled in 2008. Dating from the mid 17th Century, with remodelling in the mid 18th Century, the house has been restored and renovated by the current owners to the very highest standards with great care taken with the many significant and important period features, which abound throughout the property.
The principal manor house is approached through its own remote controlled gated entrance and has an impressive stone frontage.
On the ground floor there is a fine flagged entrance hall, three principal reception rooms and a glorious panelled library/study. In addition there is a spacious tiled ground floor shower room and WC, and a well equipped fully fitted Smallbone breakfast kitchen.
On the first floor is a magnificent master bedroom with commanding views and a luxurious, spacious ensuite Smallbone fitted dressing room. There are three further generous bedrooms and a stunning, fully tiled bathroom, with underfloor heating and Jacuzzi bath with separate walk in shower.
The recent renovation of the second floor has created very atmospheric and spacious additional bedrooms and living area, with underfloor heating throughout and a carefully designed floating floor above an original lime ash floor installed under the advice of the County Conservation Officers. There are three very generous bedrooms and a well fitted modern bathroom and WC with separate spacious sitting area.
The whole house enjoys a recently installed mega flow pressurised water system.
There is much history surrounding the village of Sutton Scarsdale, particularly in relation to the site of the nearby hall, with mentions in the Domesday Book and there is strong evidence that Sutton Manor was the estate office and home farm for Sutton Scarsdale Hall. Considerable work has been undertaken in relation to the architectural and historical background of the Manor.
There is a substantial adjoining range of former agricultural outbuildings and barns, completely renovated and restored by the current owners, who have used it for general office B1 use. These enjoy separate gated access with links through to the main house site, and comprise over 2,000ft² of extremely well renovated space, comprising entrance hall, spiral staircase to first floor with two offices, fitted kitchen, cloakroom with disabled access, two single storey offices on the ground floor and stunning double height open barn with underfloor heating. The offices are all computer cabled.
There are private enclosed gardens around the house and an adjoining and adjacent woodland with separate access and a paddock area. In all some 8.3 acres.
Note
Sutton Lodge, a nearby two bedroomed Victorian cottage could be available as a separate lot if required – further details on request.
