Our Summary
- This is a medieval hunting lodge and Victorian masterpiece reimagined as a romantic family home, with a stunning Jacobean Wing requiring renovation
- Through the ages, distinguished owners have left their mark - from its origins in 1203 as a hunting lodge, through its gentrification in the 1600s and 1800s to sensitive renovations carried out in recent years
- Every aspect of the restoration project has been undertaken with steadfast dedication, enlisting master craftsmen and the finest materials to create a home that not only honours its time-honoured architectural heritage but elevates it: a stained glass window displays the Bulmer coast of arms; grand double doors with an escutcheon Yorkshire rose have been replicated; and a tiled backdrop to the Aga displays a drawing by the Rowntree family, previous tenants of Riseborough Hall
- The Jacobean wing, secured with a steel frame, requires complete renovation
