Kirkby Hall is one of North Yorkshire's most impressive country houses and private residences. Listed Grade II* the property has an abundance of character and charm dating back to its origins and such examples of this include the beautiful fireplaces and surrounds, the incredible staircase and the ceiling cornices and friezes.

Entering the property you immediately walk into the reception hall with grand cantilevered staircase which instantly stops you in your tracks and makes you absorb your surroundings. From the hall double doors lead into a magnificent drawing room which is over 46 feet in length and looks out over the beautifully kept garden and lake. The remaining reception rooms are all elegantly proportioned, face south and ideal for formal entertaining or simply enjoying as part of family life in this home. The living kitchen has substantial space to use as the day-to-day hub and with French doors opening out to the east terrace the sense of space is extended further. The lower ground floor is huge and offers flexible space as well as extensive storage.

The first floor is dominated by a galleried landing looking down on to the reception hall. There are five bedrooms suites on this floor with three of them having glorious south facing aspects looking out on the lake. The second floor has a further four bedrooms and two bathrooms.

Formed out of the east wing are three self-contained properties: a two bedroom ground floor apartment, a three bedroom first floor apartment and a one bedroom cottage. All three are additional to the main living space and provide excellent accommodation perfect for dependent family or staff. They are all currently let out. Vacant possession will be granted on legal completion if required.

The Coach House is recently constructed in stone in a Classical eighteenth-century style sympathetic to the principal house, and is discreetly set in the grounds of Kirkby Hall.

It offers secure garaging for four luxury cars, open garaging/dry storage, separate stabling comprising four loose boxes and a yard.

On the first floor is an office overlooking the lake.

Within the Coach House is a two storey cottage with its own parking and outstanding views. This beautifully appointed one bedroom cottage has an open-plan kitchen/living space arrangement. On the second floor is the large bedroom and en suite shower room with a large walk-in shower.

There is planning permission for a further cottage in the stable/coach house yard and potential for alternative uses, subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents.

We have been advised that the four units (three apartments and the cottage) are currently used as holiday lets, and are achieving rental income between £100,000 and £150,000 per annum.

In addition, there are paddocks and stables for those that have equestrian interests. Off-street parking is available.
Part of the undeniable charm and beauty of Kirkby Hall is its setting and grounds. The gardens are formed by three prime areas. The banked lawn to the front which becomes a blanket of yellow in Spring when the daffodils bloom, the south facing formal lawn at the rear that meets the lake and then the circa one acre walled garden to the east which is a haven of colour, privacy and peace. In addition there are paddocks and woodland plus a run of stables.

The approach to the house is impressive to say the least. A sweeping driveway swings past The Church of St Mary and leads to a carriage drive that sits proudly in front of the property. This continues down to the coach house, garaging and stables.

The gardens are phenomenal with manicured lawns, well stocked herbaceous beds and borders, mature trees, lake and a beautiful, enclosed wall garden with summer house and outside kitchen and reception room. There are paddocks and woodland which all add to the undeniable elegance and charm that make Kirkby Hall such an incredible home.
