Ripley is a traditional estate village with a variety of period houses, stone cottages and cobbled squares together with the renowned Ripley Castle, home of the Ingilby family for the last 700 years. The village offers a good range of facilities including a hotel/public house, primary school, general store, butchers, church, cricket club, tea room, car repair garage, nursery, tennis court, children’s playground and the town hall which has facilities for snooker, pool and badminton in the Star Club. A bus service operates throughout the day to the nearby town of Harrogate, City of Ripon and Leeds via Harrogate. For the commuter, the property is well situated close to the A61, which provides good connections to the A1(M), A59 and further afield.

5 Main Street is a lovely Grade II listed end of terrace property believed to date from the early to mid 19th Century, forming part of the estate village for Sir William Amcotts Ingilby, built very much in Gothic style with coursed squared gritstone and a grey slate roof.

The cottage offers well proportioned accommodation arranged over 2 floors including an entrance hall, sitting room, dining kitchen and a walk in pantry/utility room. On the first floor is a landing, 2 bedrooms and a bathroom.

To the rear of the cottage there is a courtyard adjoining the house with a good sized outbuilding having potential for conversion into a home office/studio. There is an additional outbuilding and another building housing an old WC. Beyond is a lovely lawned garden which runs all the way down to Orchard Lane.

The next steps...

Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.

Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.

To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.

Remember that having a 'mortgage decision in principle' can make you a more attractive buyer when you make an offer on a property. Contact our mortgage advisers for free, no obligation and impartial advice.

Some advantages of a broker are:

  • They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
  • They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
  • Their wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
  • They offer more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
  • They can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
  • They are typically easier to get in contact with, and are less bureaucratic.

However advantages of working with your bank are:

  • You may be able to build off an existing relationship (and gain discounts if you have a checking or savings account)
  • You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
  • Banks may be more accountable than a smaller shop
  • They may offer lower interest rates in some cases
  • Their ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.
