Dronfield Woodhouse Hall is a rare Grade II* listed 16th-century hall set within a conservation area and approached via a broad stone-flagged drive. The house retains many original features — stone mullioned windows, inglenook fireplaces, exposed beams and window seats — and has been sympathetically presented with recent specialist Steelyte double-glazed windows and high-quality Churchwood kitchen fittings with Cosentino worksurfaces.
The accommodation is extensive and flexible across three floors, offering five/six bedrooms, three bathrooms, generous reception rooms and useful cellar storage. The layout and room sizes suit a growing family that values period character plus modern comforts such as gas central heating and a well-appointed fitted kitchen. Externally the property sits in very large private walled gardens with pond, mature hedging, former kitchen garden and ample parking with attached double garage.
Important considerations: the house’s Grade II* listed status and conservation area designation protect its character but will restrict alterations and may complicate maintenance or extension plans. The size and age of the building mean ongoing upkeep and higher running costs are likely; council tax is described as quite expensive. Broadband is average — sufficient for general use but not high-speed specialist requirements.
This is a specialist purchase: ideal for buyers who prioritise historic character, generous living space and private gardens, and who accept the responsibilities of owning a high-status listed property. For families seeking room, history and privacy in a very affluent, low-crime area, the hall offers an exceptionally private and picturesque home, provided they factor in listing constraints and maintenance commitments.
