House-hunters left stunned by “Hogwarts” mansion on market for whopping £15m

A HOUSE doubling as an Irish pub is up for grabs for a cool £625,000 for those looking to roll out of bed and onto a barstool.

The four bedroom property located in the market town of Knottingley, West Yorkshire is listed on property site Rightmove by Bradleys Real Estate, where it was reduced in price earlier this month.

The detached house boasts a traditional Irish theme throughout – with green walls throughout the ground floor reception area, which hosts a heavy-set oak bar and areas to sit and enjoy a drink.

Various Irish whiskies appear to be on offer both in the cabinets behind the bar and on taps hanging from the walls.

Whisky barrels serve as makeshift tables whilst dark green foliage and lights hang just below the ceiling, making for an atmosphere that wouldn’t be out of place in a busy boozer.

Meanwhile, there are signs on the wall with the Jameson logo and fairy lights across the ceiling – an ode to the Irish fae folklore.

The sprawling exterior of the property is set to the rear of the house – which is painted entirely black – and boasts a split level garden with paving stones, lawn and seating areas set throughout the expanse.

An outdoor dining area, picnic benches and a fire pit are just some of the features of the lush garden, which is stylishly decorated with stone statues and various trees and plants.

The entrance to the property draws in prospective buyers with a pale green door, decorative picture rail and stripped wooden flooring.

By the Victorian front door is a vintage carved oak table with a sofa insert, whilst across from the hallway are a lounge room and family room.

The music/reading room contains an enchanting collection of green Victorian rugs, a matching green fireplace and green walls leading to an array of houseplants dotted around the room.

A grand piano can also be seen in the corner of the room, giving an air of Georgian elegance to the music/reading room.

The lounge room can be spotted by its hanging ceiling plants and large bay windows which look out into the garden.

This room is also sprinkled with exquisite Irish themes as green pillows rest on large cream settees and grand marble sculptures sit proudly at the back of the room.

Further waves of green can be seen as the middle landing of the staircase showcases a small armchair and hanging plants that look over onto a bathroom with green shower walls.

The shower also appears to have been given a decorative plant, winding around its structure.

One househunter shared the unique property on social media yesterday, writing: “Not sure what I think about this one?”

Many shared their thoughts on the property with a mixed bag of opinions.

One person wrote: “It’s a really nice house and a pub? I kinda love it.”

Another said: “That’s confusing. It starts out [as] a pub with gothic statues and a bit of a pergola kick, then ends up a lovely period property with some great plants.

“Then I read the floor plan and it’s only got about 8 rooms?”

A third commented: “To think that it is the same price as my house in London but five times bigger both indoor and outdoor.”

A fourth added: “I was going to say it’d absorb all the heat in summer but the painted side is facing north. Nice house for the money.”
