Lord Street, Macclesfield, SK11

A sympathetically renovated 3-storey traditional weavers cottage, offering highly deceptive accommodation to include 4 double bedrooms, and stunningly presented throughout.

Lord Street is a highly popular location due to its quiet, but convenient fringe of town centre position. The immediate surrounding environment is an eclectic and historical mix of architectural styles - Regency, Georgian and Victorian era properties, rub shoulders and share open green parkland in this relatively peaceful, highly attractive, and convenient location. 

Macclesfield's direct mainline Manchester Piccadilly [23 mins] and London Euston [90 mins] station can be reached by foot in just 5 minutes from the front door, whilst the increasingly vibrant town centre lies just a couple of minutes stroll away. Macclesfield's largest park - 44 acre South Park, almost neighbours this location, and can be easily accessed by lovers of the outdoors, and of course for those who require plenty of outside space for frequent dog walks.

Number 24 Lord Street, is a historic grade 2 listed, three-storey+ basement cellar, traditional weavers cottage of brick elevations surmounted by a slate-covered roof. The kerb appeal is most attractive; a handsome façade adorned by original Georgian-style sash windows, which are complimented by a period front door and an attractive original fanlight window.

The accommodation is highly deceptive, stretching over three beautifully resplendent storey's, which have been the subject of a sympathetic restoration and refurbishment by the current owners.

Entering the accommodation via the front door, one is greeted by a lovely, bright and welcoming front reception room, which currently serves as a roomy but cosy living room. A small inner hallway with a central staircase separates the living room from a magnificent fully refurbished, contemporary-style, individually designed fitted kitchen. A comprehensive range of dust grey shaker cabinets are complemented by an array of integrated appliances, which include a double oven and grill range cooker, a tall fridge and freezer, a dishwasher, a washing machine/tumble dryer and a stainless steel and glass extractor canopy. An original understairs pantry offers welcome storage, whilst also providing access to a perfect wine cellar below!

The kitchen adjoins a lovely dining room, ideal for everyday dining, or equally perfect for entertaining family and guests. From the dining room, a door opens to reveal a landscaped and fully enclosed cottage-style garden. This is a fabulous and private environment for enjoying good company, or simply relaxing with a good book. Two brick outhouses provide great outdoor storage solutions, and a ginnel shared with one neighbour, provides access from Lord Street for bikes or bins etc.

A staircase between the living room and kitchen, climbs to reveal a lovely first floor gallery-style landing, featuring a luxuriously appointed, split-level bathroom; benefitting lots of integrated storage options.

The naturally bright, double-sized master bedroom, is sumptuously-appointed and features three built-in double wardrobes, along with ample space for a king-size bed and additional bedroom furniture.

A second bedroom doubles as a guest bedroom, or as currently utilised, a great home office solution.

From the landing, a second staircase rises to the second floor, where two huge and naturally bright attic bedrooms offer far reaching over-roof-top views of the town and open Peak hills, and offer the flexibility to remain as independent bedrooms, or the possibility to serve as studios, offices, or perhaps a dream teenager's bedroom and living space.

The entire accommodation is warmed by a gas combination boiler heating system, and as previously mentioned, is ready for immediate occupation.

This is indeed a truly super home; full of original charm and character, and offering an unbelievable amount of flexible living space - far more than most homes in this particular price budget. The up-and-coming leafy Park Green area of the town, lies on the lucky new owner's doorstep - a fabulous and fast growing social scene, which may actually be a bit too close and convenient to resist a spontaneous drink or two; especially on a glorious summer day!

Planning consent has just elapsed for a ground floor extension that the current owners had considered; however, the plans are available for inspection and can be re-submitted for approval by the new owners, if so desired. 

Flexible viewing appointments both within & outside of normal office hours are a pleasure to arrange; please contact the sole selling estate agent, Simeon Rains in association with The Good Estate Agent, Macclesfield.
