The Grade II listed home was designed by Richard Harding-Watt, a well-known designer who worked on several Knutsford properties.

Morland Lodge was originally built in 1905 as a Gatehouse. Watt’s designs are mostly in the Italianate style and he, himself, lived on Legh Road until 1913.

Now it has been thoughtfully, sympathetically and beautifully brought back to life since its current owner purchased it 44 years ago.

The main accommodation is arranged over three floors and then extends up into the tower for two more levels to make the most of the stunning views and to enjoy the roof terrace.

A gravelled driveway leads to the front door and provides parking for three cars. 

There is an immaculate courtyard garden leading from the conservatory and winding down to the lower ground floor.
