Georgian Country House For Sale
This is a rare opportunity to acquire Lumby Hall, a distinguished Georgian residence with an attached three bedroom cottage set within just under four acres of formal gardens in the historic village of Lumby.
The village itself has deep roots, recorded in the Domesday Book and known for its fine country houses and agricultural heritage. Lumby Hall forms part of that story, an elegant period home dating back to the Georgian era, sympathetically restored to preserve its grandeur while offering all the comforts of modern living.
The property is approached via gated access to a sweeping driveway that meanders through the gardens, leading to a large turning circle at the front of the Hall. A substantial garage complex of over 2,000 sq.ft, with bifold doors, sits to one side and provides exceptional flexibility for garaging, entertaining or business use.
Inside, the Hall’s grand proportions and period character are immediately evident. Two elegant reception rooms flank the imposing hallway, each with open fireplaces. In the west wing, a magnificent 27ft x 19ft living room features a bay window and double doors to the gardens, offering a perfect setting for both relaxation and entertaining.
The modern kitchen/diner serves as the heart of the home, while the bright orangery, currently used as a games room, opens to both the formal front gardens and the rear courtyard. A walk in pantry/gun-room, utility room with steps to the cellars, and guest bathroom complete the ground floor.
Upstairs, there is no principle bedroom as all guests find ample space in each, all of which having access to an ensuite. Three of the bedrooms come with access to a dressing room.
The garage complex is connected to the Hall by a fully fitted bar room with office space above, creating further versatile accommodation. The attached three bedroom cottage, with a modern kitchen/diner, and living room can remain self-contained for guests or be incorporated into the main house.
Externally, the grounds offer complete privacy, with manicured gardens, mature trees and a collection of useful outbuildings. The parkland setting changes beautifully with the seasons, improving the property’s sense of tranquility.
Given its historic significance, exceptional condition, and semi-rurual location, Lumby Hall represents a once in a lifetime chance to own an important piece of local heritage. The property is offered with the considerable advantage of no onward chain.
Where is Lumby Hall located?
Lumby Hall enjoys a highly convenient position on the edge of the sought after semi-rural village of Lumby, perfectly balancing countryside tranquility with excellent transport links. The A63, A1(M), M1 and M62 are all within easy reach, making travel across Yorkshire and beyond straightforward.
The neighbouring village of Ledsham, famed for the characterful Chequers Inn, is close by, while the larger village of South Milford, with its train station, schools, garage, and other amenities, is just a short drive away.
