HISTORICAL NOTE Hatherton Lodge is a fine example of Regency architecture, having been constructed in the early 19th Century. It is believed that a property has been on the site since at least the 17th Century and was owned by the Twemlow Family from 1686. Initially owned by William Twemlow, it then passed through the generations and the original property was demolished in circa 1807 by his son, John Twemlow. In its place, Hatherton Lodge as we see it today was built. At the time of construction, the design of Hatherton Lodge took inspiration from the early 19th Century ‘Picturesque Movement’ which concentrated on the departure away from large country houses to what was described as ‘Gentlemen’s Residences’ which were seen to be of a more manageable size than the former. Hatherton Lodge is constructed of brick with cream stucco rendered front elevation and has a symmetrical three-bay front façade with central bow window above a limestone & ashlar portico. The remaining elevations are cream painted, all of which with low brick plinth and decorative plain string at first floor level. The roof is slate with double hip being shallow in pitch with leaded ridge tiles and a central chimney stack with 6 terracotta pots. Since its construction, there has been further alterations in the 19th, 20th and 21st Centuries, principally the rear service wing which has since been remodelled to form part of the main house. Internally, the property remains much of its original character with period features throughout to include moulded ceiling cornice, original fireplaces, tall skirting boards, deep architraves, panelled doors, sash windows, shutters and skylight. In recent times the property has been subject to schemes of upgrading and improvement, albeit currently the house would benefit of some upgrading to bring to modern standards. ## Property Photos - ![Picture No. 33](/listings/photos/152268779/20353) - Picture No. 33 - ![Picture No. 23](/listings/photos/152268779/20356) - Picture No. 23 - ![Picture No. 34](/listings/photos/152268779/20359) - Picture No. 34 - ![Picture No. 27](/listings/photos/152268779/20360) - Picture No. 27 - ![Picture No. 08](/listings/photos/152268779/20363) - Picture No. 08 - ![Picture No. 30](/listings/photos/152268779/20365) - Picture No. 30 - ![Picture No. 11](/listings/photos/152268779/20368) - Picture No. 11 - ![Picture No. 10](/listings/photos/152268779/20370) - Picture No. 10 - ![Picture No. 03](/listings/photos/152268779/20371) - Picture No. 03 - ![Picture No. 04](/listings/photos/152268779/20373) - Picture No. 04 - ![Picture No. 05](/listings/photos/152268779/20375) - Picture No. 05 - ![Picture No. 06](/listings/photos/152268779/20377) - Picture No. 06 - ![Picture No. 07](/listings/photos/152268779/20378) - Picture No. 07 - ![Picture No. 09](/listings/photos/152268779/20380) - Picture No. 09 - ![Picture No. 12](/listings/photos/152268779/20381) - Picture No. 12 - ![Picture No. 13](/listings/photos/152268779/20382) - Picture No. 13 - ![Picture No. 14](/listings/photos/152268779/20383) - Picture No. 14 - ![Picture No. 15](/listings/photos/152268779/20384) - Picture No. 15 - ![Picture No. 16](/listings/photos/152268779/20385) - Picture No. 16 - ![Picture No. 26](/listings/photos/152268779/20386) - Picture No. 26 - ![Picture No. 25](/listings/photos/152268779/20387) - Picture No. 25 - ![Picture No. 29](/listings/photos/152268779/20388) - Picture No. 29 - ![Picture No. 18](/listings/photos/152268779/20389) - Picture No. 18 - ![Picture No. 17](/listings/photos/152268779/20390) - Picture No. 17 - ![Picture No. 32](/listings/photos/152268779/20391) - Picture No. 32 - ![Picture No. 19](/listings/photos/152268779/20392) - Picture No. 19 - ![Picture No. 20](/listings/photos/152268779/20393) - Picture No. 20 - ![Picture No. 21](/listings/photos/152268779/20394) - Picture No. 21 - ![Picture No. 24](/listings/photos/152268779/20395) - Picture No. 24 - ![Map](/listings/photos/152268779/20396) - Map ## Floorplans - ![Floorplan](/listings/photos/152268779/20397) - Floorplan ## Sales History *Recorded sales for this property.
