£2.5m Victorian villa in Knutsford put on the market

The 6,000 square foot detached property, in Parkfield Road, sits in private and gated grounds within the Legh Road conservation area.

Estate agents Stuart Rushton & Co are marketing the five-bedroom house, which the owners have spent the past 10 years restoring, at £2.5 million.

The property listing on Rightmove states: "The accommodation is laid out over four floors and has a fantastic, flexible layout for the family with formal rooms on the ground floor and superb leisure rooms including a games room and cinema/media room in a fantastic professionally converted lower floor area.

"Refurbished substantially, the house is impeccably presented and still boasts stunning period features including panelling, high ceilings and a wonderful three-storey stairwell with original staircase."

Visitors enter the property through a porch, which leads into a tiled-floor entrance hall. On the ground floor, there is a drawing room, dining room, morning room, a kitchen/breakfast room, a pantry and a cloakroom/toilet.
