A RARE GEORGIAN GEM IN THE HEART OF CONGLETON – BURSTING WITH POTENTIAL - NO ONWARD CHAINSet on what many consider one of the finest Georgian terraces in the region, this handsome townhouse is a true find — full of character, elegance and the chance to create something spectacular. It’s ready for a buyer with vision to put their own stamp on it, with selective updating now needed.Positioned right in the centre of town, you can stroll to Congleton’s bustling High Street, cafés, shops and amenities in minutes. Yet the terrace itself feels calm, historic and beautifully preserved — a slice of period living in an unbeatable location.Inside, the classic Georgian proportions shine through:A welcoming hall with access to the cellar, lounge, dining room, kitchen, and a lean-to porch with W.C., all leading out to the enclosed rear garden.Upstairs, the first floor offers two bedrooms, study, dressing room and shower room, with the second floor providing two further bedrooms and a bathroom. Gas central heating is already installed.Homes like this — with scale, charm and central convenience — rarely come to market. Most period properties sit on busy main roads, but this terrace enjoys a quieter, tucked-away feel while still being moments from everything: supermarkets, bus station, taxi rank, and fast links to the bypass and major routes.This is a chance to secure a dream period home and shape it exactly as you wish. With its architecture, location and potential, it’s a property that will reward its next owners for years to come.Opportunities like this don’t linger. Book your viewing and see the magic for yourself.
