An impressive period country house with around four and a half acres of grounds, in an idyllic rural setting


Description

Newton Grange was originally part of the Ripley Castle Estate, having served as a small holding with numerous associated outbuildings, including a granary, stables and threshing barn, all of which have been sympathetically amalgamated and reconfigured to form the particularly fine country house which stands today. Situated in absolutely stunning countryside around two miles from Ripley Village and around five and a half miles north of Harrogate, the property offers a degree of peace and tranquillity rarely experienced in the area.

With a gross internal area extending to just over 3800 square feet, this is a generous family house featuring grand rooms, like the spectacular galleried dining/sitting room, but also more cosy spaces such as the family snug and living area off the kitchen, featuring the original timber stalls and an eye catching reclaimed brick floor.

The present owners have made their mark, by further enhancing the buildings both inside and out with a number of additions and improvements, updating a number of the outbuildings and general infrastructure. One of the highlights is the kitchen/breakfast room, designed and fitted by Stephen Neall Interiors of Harrogate, boasting a range of handmade painted hardwood units under striking Cumberland slate and copper work surfaces, finished off with an electric four oven Aga and quality Neff and Bosch appliances. The resulting space is perfect for modern family lifestyles and benefits from underfloor heating and a series of full height windows framing the views.

The ground floor accommodation centres around the impressive dining hall and living area which provides a fabulous entertaining space, off which are a number of flexible rooms, currently serving as a snug and guest bedroom (perfect for elderly relatives) complete with an en suite bathroom. The first floor provides a further four bedrooms, all good doubles and with far reaching views, the principal bedroom having a modern en suite bathroom, and a family bathroom serving the others.

In addition to the main house are a number of outbuildings and an integral store/boiler room. A gravel driveway leads past a garage block to a large central courtyard with ample parking for several cars, retained by a single storey stone building (formerly a pig barn) providing a number of useful stores ideal for gardening equipment. There is another driveway to the front of the house leading to a further parking area and the entrance hall. The gardens extend from here to the north east and around to the south east of the property, the majority lawned but with colourful borders, dotted with specimen trees and shrubs and an inviting patio area just off the kitchen providing a wonderful spot to sit and enjoy the views. The land extends to the east, amounting to around four and a half acres, predominantly grassland bound by mature hedgerows and woodland.

Location

Whilst the property enjoys particularly rural surroundings, it remains conveniently close to amenities, the nearby village of Ripley (about two miles) which has a castle and gardens also provides an art gallery, farm shop, quality food shop and an active village hall. There is also a historic church, primary school and a variety of small shops, including a distillery and the famous 'Ripleys ice cream' shop. The property is a short distance from the A61, although not within earshot, providing easy access to Harrogate and Ripon. The railway station in Harrogate connects with mainline stations in Leeds and York and provides frequent services to London Kings Cross and Edinburgh.
