Summary - 72 CHURCH ROAD QUARNDON DERBY DE22 5JA
6 bed 4 bath Detached
Victorian country estate with huge gardens, modern renovation and annex potential.
Circa 8,700–9,000 sq ft of living space across three floors
Quarndon Hall is a commanding Victorian residence of circa 8,700–9,000 sq ft set within about 5.7 acres of expertly landscaped gardens. Carefully renovated in 2019, the house blends many original period details—high ceilings, cornicing and original fireplaces—with modern upgrades including a new roof, full rewiring, improved insulation, Accoya timber-framed windows and underfloor heating to the ground and first floors. The accommodation spans three floors and includes generous reception rooms, a bespoke Charles Yorke kitchen, gym, cellar storage and attached garaging.
The grounds are a principal asset: sweeping, gated driveway, formal lawns, cascading ponds, an ornamental lake, an Italianate temple and extensive specialist planting (rhododendrons, camellias, heathers). Two brick outbuildings sit to the south of the garden; one has planning permission for residential conversion and the larger structure is suitable for development subject to planning (STPP), offering scope for an annex or ancillary living space.
Living here suits a family seeking space, privacy and strong school links—the property is in the Ecclesbourne School catchment and close to well-regarded primary and secondary schools. Commuting is straightforward with Derby about four miles away and rail links to London from nearby stations. Modern security features include CCTV and an alarm system, while comforts such as a sound system, sauna plumbing and substantial garaging add practicality.
Buyers should note the maintenance commitment: nearly six acres of mature gardens and numerous period and landscaped features will require ongoing gardening and upkeep, and running costs for a large 19th-century house can be significant despite modern heating upgrades. Also, the listing details vary on bathroom counts (summary states three; later details record four)—prospective purchasers should verify the precise room and bathroom configuration during inspection.
