2 Whittington Old Hall is a glorious Grade 11* Listed property. Steeped in rich history and occupying a prime position in the much sought-after village of Whittington. This stunning property perfectly blends practical living space with the opulent twists of grandeur that a house of this importance should possess.

Built mainly of red brick and sandstone quoins and dressings, the core of this wonderful house dates back to the 16th century. Later addition have been added throughout the 18th/19th century.

Whittington Old Hall was bought in 1889 by Samuel Lipscomb Seckham, High Sherriff of Staffordshire who commissioned architect Mathew Holding of Northampton to remodel the property. In 1959 the Hall was sold and divided into two substantial houses, Number 2 being one of those.

Leading in from the manicured gardens, the entrance to this splendid property is through modern glass double doors encased within a timber frame which then opens into the entrance vestibule, and in turn flows into the main reception room. This incredible room is 30'8” long and is used as a combined drawing room and dining room.

The stunning library has bookcases and a decorative corner fireplace. A new addition is the modern cloakroom cleverly concealed behind a bookcase.

The cosy sitting room is beautifully decorated with a multi-fuel burning stove. This part of the house is likely to be an 18th or early 19th century extension. The warm bright kitchen/breakfast room is adorned with lovely cream painted base and wall units and gas fired two oven Aga. A door leads out to the side of the property to a private walled courtyard, and there is also access to a good size cellar.
