An exceptional arts & crafts gate lodge created for wicksted hall circa 1903.
Commanding an elevated position on the edge of the historic Wicksted Hall estate, The Lodge was commissioned by Lieutenant Herbert Wicksted Ethelston as part of the original Arts & Crafts vision for the estate between 1903 and 1906. Recently and beautifully internally restored throughout, this distinctive detached residence combines Edwardian architectural character alongside contemporary style.
The Lodge is a remarkable Arts & Crafts residence occupying a prominent position at the original entrance to Wicksted Hall. Constructed between 1903 and 1906 as part of Lieutenant Herbert Wicksted Ethelston's vision for the estate, the property remains an important surviving element of the original country house composition. Designed to create a distinguished arrival to the Hall, The Lodge occupies an elevated setting and enjoys views across the surrounding Cheshire countryside.
The architecture is characteristic of the Arts & Crafts movement, with handsome red brick elevations, steep slate rooflines, decorative detailing and substantial chimney stacks creating a building of genuine architectural character and presence.
The property internally has undergone a comprehensive restoration programme, carefully balancing historic character with exceptional contemporary style. The result is a beautifully presented home, with natural light flooding through each room, open space and Countryside lifestyle. Highlights include a handmade kitchen, restored staircase and joinery, underfloor heating to the ground floor, imestone flooring, luxury aged brass fittings and a stunning Lusso bathroom suite.
The gardens extend to approximately 0.2 acres and enjoy a wonderful sense of privacy whilst remaining manageable and easily maintained. Established planting, mature boundaries and open views create a setting that feels both rural and secluded.
Rarely do original Arts & Crafts gate lodges become available as independent residences. The Lodge offers an increasingly uncommon opportunity to acquire a piece of Edwardian architectural history, carefully restored for modern living and positioned within one of Cheshire's most attractive rural settings.
Location
The Lodge occupies a delightful position within the village of Wirswall, surrounded by rolling Cheshire countryside yet conveniently placed for access to Whitchurch, Nantwich, Chester and Crewe. Direct rail services from Crewe reach London Euston in approximately 90 minutes, making the property equally appealing as a principal residence, country retreat or London base.
