Grange Hall is a striking Grade II listed country home that blends medieval origins with Victorian presence. The house offers extensive, flexible living over multiple floors with abundant period detail — from exposed beams and oak panelling to mullion windows and original fireplaces — making it a rare, character-rich family home in the Yorkshire countryside.
The principal suite and three further double bedrooms suit families or downsizers seeking generous space and privacy. The kitchen sits in a contemporary conservatory-style extension opening onto mature cottage gardens, terraces and wide rural views. The site is private and secure, accessed via electric gates with off-street parking for several cars.
Buyers should be realistic about ongoing running and maintenance costs. The house uses oil-fired heating (boiler and radiators) with underfloor heating in some rooms, has a private borehole water supply and private treatment plant, and currently holds an EPC rating of E. As a Grade II listed building, repairs, alterations and energy upgrades will be subject to listed-building consent and could add cost and complexity.
For families drawn to character and space near the Dales, the location is convenient: good local primary schools, nearby towns for shops and mainline stations, fast broadband, low crime and excellent mobile signal. This is a substantial historic property for someone prepared to preserve its character while managing the practicalities of a listed country home.
