Steeped in local history, fully renovated, and restored, this enchanting, Grade II listed, property is waiting for its lucky new owners. Come and take a look... | No Onward Chain |

This charming Grade II Listed lodge is a home with a history. Designed and built circa 1850 by landscape artist Edward Cooke for James Bateman, celebrated horticulturalist of Knypersley Hall and Biddulph Grange, the lodge originally served the carriage drive between Biddulph Grange and Greenway Bank Deer Park.

Listing celebrates a building’s special historical and architectural interest. Lovingly restored by the current owner, the interior has been beautifully designed in a paired-back colour scheme enhanced by exposed stone work, oak ledge and brace doors with beeswaxed Suffolk latches, and glass details that give this heritage home a contemporary aesthetic. The façade has a wealth of architectural features to admire, including coped gables with moulded kneelers, Victorian chimneys and pinnacles, and an exquisitely hand-crafted oak front door. There is also a large stone outbuilding, originally agricultural in nature, which now accommodates a spacious home office and garage.

The thoughtful interiors are complemented by a cottage garden extending to quarter of an acre. This magical space includes well-established borders, damson, apple and fig trees, a large ‘no dig’ allotment, a wildlife pond, and fairy rings. All tucked away behind a substantial, gated stone wall that affords maximum privacy. To the south, the lodge enjoys uninterrupted views across open countryside to the hills beyond Knypersley Reservoir.

This is truly a wonderful home that received consent for comprehensive renovation works in 2016. The result is a listed building that complies with today’s modern standards, while preserving all the architectural details that tell the story of its unique history.<br /><br />
