INTRODUCTION

Chantry House is one of Ripley’s most prominent and beautiful properties; it is available for sale for only the second time since its construction nearly 200 years ago.
Built on the site of the village’s original Chantry, the historic building would have housed the local priests who at one time provided education for the village and surrounding community.
The majority of the current property dates from the 1830’s when Ripley was rebuilt as a model estate village, although some aspects such as the medieval window precede this.
Chantry House offers a potential buyer the chance to put their own mark on its history. The property has been beautifully restored and presented, with new plumbing, overseen by the current owners.
There are three formal receptions rooms, a breakfast kitchen, a Victorian conservatory, a utility room and cloakroom.
The kitchen is bespoke and designed to be in-keeping with the period of the property while still appealing to the modern eye. The original stone fireplace has been stripped back and restored for use in the winter months.
The ballroom was added to the rear of the property during the Victorian era and is one of the home’s many unique features, giving it exceptional character.

ENVIRONS

Ripley is a unique village that is regularly listed as one of the most desirable places to live in Yorkshire. Ripley’s splendidly eccentric Gothic town hall was modelled on a French town hall – you can watch films, play snooker or badminton, enjoy concerts and plays and even do Zumba. Add to that the butcher’s shop, village store, historic church with welcoming church community, primary school with day nursery, gin copper distillery, Harrogate Tipple, art gallery, craft interiors shops and famous ice cream shop. Ripley sits astride the Harrogate and Knaresborough to Clint long distance cycleway, providing easy off road cycle access to Harrogate and opening up a range of jogging and walking routes. It is also on the Nidderdale Way long distance walk. There are also a number of clubs and recreational sports facilities in the village plus it sits at the gateway to The Yorkshire Dales.
