A meticulously renovated country home with exceptional design throughout and magnificent grounds.
A beautifully presented six-bedroom home situated on Raikes Lane in Rylstone just outside Skipton. Rylstone House is the larger part of a Georgian Manor House and walled estate built by Richard Waddilove the squire of Rylstone in 1811. Surrounded by rolling countryside and idyllic villages such as neighbouring Hetton. The property itself features extensive living accommodation, spacious bedrooms as well as an attached annexe. There is also a cinema room, gym and wine cellar which really add to the property’s appeal.
Rylstone itself is a peaceful and historic community, with stone-built cottages and traditional rural architecture that reflects the area’s heritage. The House is in easy walking distance of the much-celebrated Michelin starred Angel at Hetton and a short walk from a pub, farm shop and café in Cracoe. There is a local church St Peter’s Rylstone, and a highly regarded primary school and handy bus route to Skipton and Grassington.
The village has become famous for its association with the Rylstone Women’s Institute, who were featured in the film Calendar Girls (2003). The village also has roots dating back to Viking times, offering a rich heritage and stunning Yorkshire Dales scenery. Rylstone House is full of light interiors with picturesque surroundings and peaceful atmosphere.
This remarkable country home presents a flexible and expansive layout, offering exceptional living spaces. The accommodation begins with a grand entrance hallway, which leads to a convenient utility room and guest W.C. To the left, you’ll find an office space and pantry, before stepping into the elegant formal living room, which boasts breathtaking views and a striking feature fireplace.
The lower ground floor houses a wine cellar and cold store, with the cellar showcasing a 17th century ship’s timber ceiling. At the heart of the home is the exquisite open-plan kitchen and dining area, featuring a 1920s marquetry floor, original 1920’s crystal chandelier, and large glass and Crittal doors that open to the garden. Completing the ground floor is a cosy snug. Additionally, an attached annexe offers a self-contained kitchen, living room, and a bedroom with an en-suite shower room and sauna.
On the first floor, you’ll discover four beautifully appointed bedrooms, including a spacious principal suite. One bedroom benefits from its own en-suite shower room, while the remaining two share a stylish family bathroom. The second floor offers even more space, with an additional bedroom, cinema room, gym with climbing wall, and a further bathroom.
Externally the property has easy access to a large store rooms. The gated access leads up a winding driveway where you are greeted by ample parking for multiple cars. The delightful walled gardens feature a monkey puzzle tree and extensive mature planting. There are also two ponds which are home to an abundance of wildlife. Additionally, there is a walled and gated field/paddock suitable for a pony, orchard or development opportunity. The gardens / land associated with this property really are exquisite.
We are advised that the property is connected to mains water, electricity and drainage. Oil fired central heating is also installed. The property has been extensively renovated by the current owners, the building of an annexe and conversion of the attic floor which has doubled the inhabitable space in the property. Rylstone House, has benefitted from a new roof up to modern building regulations, the installation of heritage double glazed sash windows by Dales joinery expert James Wilding, a new modern boiler and water heater and comprehensive re modelling of the garden and grounds. It has also been extensively insulated.
