The ultimate country house in a small private estate.
Copt Hewick Hall is a fine and important Grade II listed Regency house, surrounded by its own small estate. No detail has escaped the current owners meticulous programme of works. Two principal extensions have been made, there is a new roof, rewiring and the inclusion of new plumbing and heating systems throughout. The
remodelling of the interior provides a quite exceptional country house of fine proportions with painstakingly preserved period features, offering all the benefits of modern living with luxurious and bespoke finishes throughout.
The approach to the main house is impressive along the private treelined drive, past a small lake to a gravel sweep at the front elevation.
The imposing front door opens into beautifully proportioned accommodation commencing with the reception hall with cloakroom and WC off, which conveniently leads to the garden hall at the heart of the house. This impressive room with its central fireplace and glorious views through the sash windows and French doors to the gardens beyond, is complemented by the formal reception rooms.
The dining room enjoys excellent natural light with elegant sash windows overlooking the grounds and the charming drawing room benefits from a superb curved window in line with a generous bay. The fireplace with its fine marble surround and scroll supports features prominently in this wonderful room.
Close to the dining room is a superb kitchen with bespoke units and integrated appliances, a four oven Aga cooker, substantial island unit and
extensive breakfast area. A useful traditional larder adjoins, with stone slab shelving and wine bins. A rear entrance hall leads to a dog room, bootroom and WC and comprehensive laundry room.
Off the staircase hall is an elegant study with fireplace and marble surround, flanked by adjustable bookshelves with a French door opening to the terrace. The inner hall leads to a sitting room, with an oak fitted bookcase,
and dominated by a fabulous stone fireplace and hearth. Beyond lies a playroom with adjacent childrens sitting room, a separate cloakroom, and utility with kitchenete and additional useful storage space.
A fine staircase with stone treads, elegant handrail and cast balusters rises in a single curving flight to the attractive central landing. There are eight excellent double bedrooms including the principal bedroom suite with its
fine bedroom and sitting area, curved bay and superb views over the gardens and parkland beyond. Included within the suite is an extensive walk-in wardrobe and luxuriously fitted bathroom.
From the main landing is a guest suite with dressing area and well appointed bathroom, three further bedrooms, two of which share an en suite shower room and a separate family bathroom. Off the west inner landing are three double bedrooms and a large childrens bathroom. There is ample provision for storage on the first floor level including walk-in wardrobes, a generous linen store and useful storage cupboards.
Notable features of this beautifully finished family house include oak flooring in the drawing room and dining room, fine limestone flooring
to the entrance halls, kitchen, central garden hall and corridors. Period features include pedimented architraves and elegant floor to ceiling sash windows to the principal rooms. The fireplaces in the main reception rooms all have fine new surrounds and the kitchen and bathrooms have all been finished to the highest specification.
The Copt Hewick Hall Estate stands in a secluded private location close to the small village of Copt Hewick, some two miles from the cathedral city of Ripon, conveniently placed for local shopping. The popular shopping centre of Harrogate is 15 miles away, the thriving city of Leeds 30 miles and the historic city of York about 22 miles. Excellent access to the commercial centres of the north and north-east is given by the A1(M), about 2 miles away.
The railway station at Harrogate links with the mainline at York and Leeds which give fast services to London Kings Cross and Edinburgh.
There are also mainline stations at Thirsk and Northallerton and a Pennine service from Thirsk to Manchester and Liverpool. Regular flights are available from Leeds Bradford and Durham Tees Valley Airports.
GARDENS AND GROUNDS
The gardens and grounds of Copt Hewick Hall feature prominently as they surround the main house. The principal approach to the house is
via the main drive flanked by grass verges and woodland, with parkland lying to the east, a small lake and island. Beyond the drive, lawned
gardens extend south of the principal house as far as the ha-ha, with the parkland beyond.
A fine stone south facing terrace with access from the garden hall gives uninterrupted views over the gardens and open countryside. To the
west, the drawing room, study and childrens sitting room look out over a Mediterranean style terrace with raised decking towards the orangery (34ft 6 x 18ft 3 / 10.52m x 5.56m), ideal for outdoor entertaining and close to a paved and railed swimming pool area surrounding an open air swimming pool (35ft 0 x 15ft 6 / 10.67m x 4.72m), with a range of domestic outbuildings lying to either side including a plant room, various store rooms, a changing room and gymnasium area.
A charming variety of walled gardens extend to the west surrounding a kitchen garden, orchard and tennis court with artificial grass surface.
There is a delightful woodland walk with a variety of trees and shrubs including bamboo, yew, rhododendron, scots pine, beech and lime.
The back drive passes North Lodge giving access to the coach house and extensive parking at the rear of the Hall.
COACH HOUSE AND STABLE YARD

facilities, including an electricity substation. On the opposite side, the old stable building is located with a side door leading through the old
gun room to gardens beyond, with a staircase rising to a superb games room on the first floor.
NORTH LODGE
North Lodge, finished in pebble dash under a stone tiled roof, is surrounded by a lawn and mature trees. Centrally heated, the accommodation includes on the ground floor an
entrance porch, dining room, sitting room, kitchen, utility room and cloakroom. Upstairs, there are two bedrooms and a bathroom.
Outside, there is a garden and an area for parking. An outhouse at the rear includes the oil tank.
