That is gorgeous. Soothing to look at.

But - and it's a Kardashian - Grade I.

I shudder to think what it would cost to run and do anything with it.

Epic wood panelling, although at Grade 1 Listed, I wouldn't fancy repairing it or heating it... lol

Lovely place, don’t know that part of the world, but the only thing that would put me off would it’s not detached and small garden.
...and it's bland, characterless interior.
The building has massive character inside and out? I think you must mean the furnishings which go with the owner??? Maybe the character just does not appeal to you.

For £3million, I want my kitchen units to have matched grain. And I *certainly* don't want two drawers next to each other with the *same* (and therefore fake) grain on them (photo 5 - on which, weirdly, two of the wall unit doors are matched, but nothing else is...).
Middle top and bottom are the same too, one is the upside version of the other!

Between you and me, Ripley Castle and estate are just about to go on the market... for the first time in 700 years.

POA.

No doubt but I don't want any of it near my castle. wink

If I buy a castle I don't want neighbours. Let alone ones literally a stones throw away.
