Description

Rolleston Manor, a Grade II Listed property dating back to the 1400s, is a stunning family home steeped in history. The property, previously owned by Florence Nightingale's father, boasts original features blended with modern upgrades. The home is divided into a four-bedroom main house and a two-bedroom holiday cottage, with the potential to open up the entire property to become a six-bedroom, three-bathroom home. The main house features a spacious dining room with a working Yorkshire cast iron range, a large sitting room, and a kitchen with a fully electric retro-design Aga. The property also includes a cellar, a large garage-workshop, and off-road parking for up to seven cars. The holiday cottage has its own separate entrance and features a lounge-diner, kitchen, and a twin bedroom on the second floor. The property is set in beautiful rolling countryside, with the historic village of Lea nearby, and is just a short drive from the market towns of Belper and Bakewell, as well as Chatsworth House and the Peak District.
