How much did Rise Hall sell for? Who lives at Rise Hall now?

In 2019, broadcaster and entrepreneur Sarah Beeny sold Yorkshire mansion Rise Hall – which appeared on her TV show Beeny’s Restoration Nightmare – for £1.4 million.

Helen and Daniel Gill are the current occupants of the mansion following their purchase some three years ago.

Prior to being bought by Sarah Beeny and her husband Graham Swift in March 2001, Rise Hall had fallen into disrepair.

The couple paid £435,000 (equivalent to £706,646 in 2018) for the property, and began restoration work on it.

Initially the couple worked on making the property watertight, by renovating the roof and guttering.

The gutters had been the source of substantial problems, overflowing into the house and causing outbreaks of both wet and dry rot.

To solve the problems, a lot of timber had to be replaced.

The couple also had to remove many of the fixtures that existed only to serve the former convent school, such as lavatory and shower cubicles, and hardboard walls.

Nine years after the purchase, Beeny presented Beeny’s Restoration Nightmare on Channel Four, showing her plans for the renovation of Rise Hall as a family home and wedding venue.

The new owners of Rise Hall, Daniel and Helen Gill, owners of an events and weddings business operate Rise Hall as a weddings and events venue.
