About this home
Tucked away just moments from Macclesfield town centre, this elegant Georgian-style detached residence, built in the 1970s with classic brick elevations, perfectly balances timeless character with modern comfort, all within easy reach of excellent schools and local amenities. A rare opportunity, this distinctive home offers both impressive presence and a true sense of individuality.
The accommodation is generously proportioned, filled with natural light, and is highly versatile. The ground floor features an entrance hall, cloakroom/W.C., a spacious lounge, and a dining room opening onto a sun terrace, ideal for enjoying morning coffee. The lower ground floor provides exceptional flexibility, comprising a family room, study, breakfast kitchen, additional WC, and utility room, along with a useful store giving access to the boiler room and double garage.
To the first floor, the principal bedroom benefits from en-suite facilities, complemented by three further double bedrooms and a well-appointed family bathroom. The property is further enhanced by gas-fired central heating and uPVC double glazing throughout.
Set well back from the road and screened by mature trees and hedging, the property enjoys a high degree of privacy. A generous driveway provides ample off-road parking and access to the double garage. The rear garden is a standout feature, an impressive outdoor retreat with an expansive lawn bordered by established trees, shrubs, and hedging. A block-paved patio with pergola offers the perfect setting for alfresco dining and entertaining, while multiple external power points provide scope for garden lighting or outdoor appliances. Completing this exceptional space is a beautifully crafted timber summer house, fully equipped with power, lighting, and heating.
