North Rode is the most attractive rural Cheshire hamlet in the heart of Cheshire, between Congleton and Macclesfield. Its locality offers access to an abundance of scenic walks, cycling and running routes. Practically the towns of Macclesfield and Congleton are within 6 miles and 5 miles respectively, with Manchester Airport some 13 miles away offering flights to worldwide destinations. The main town of Macclesfield, is offered with its mainline railway station (London Euston in approx 1hr 45mins), excellent schools including Beech Hall Preparatory School, Kings School and a range of highly regarded secondary schools. The town offers an array of high street stores, shops, bars and restaurants. Equally the charming market town of Congleton is blessed with a thriving range of facilities, excellent railway networks and enjoys easy access to the M6 Motorway.
An impressive, long, gravel drive leads to the private residences only, with delightful formal communal gardens lying to the front of the barn conversion. There is also an additional driveway found to the rear of Kilncroft which leads to its own private driveway, providing parking for numerous vehicles and its landscaped lawned gardens with an extensive Indian stone paved terrace providing an ideal outside dining and relaxing area.
The main entrance, opens into the reception hallway with Macclesfield stone floor, with cloakroom off and a beautiful oak return staircase to the first floor galleried landing. The dining hall is generous; a fitting place to host a family’s weekly Sunday roast! From the dining hall is a cosy lounge featuring picture windows and an attractive exposed brick built fireplace which comfortably houses a gas fired stove. The breakfast kitchen is the family hub, a really pleasant social space; a place to gather, chat and cook; you can even imagine the baking aroma of homemade bread. Tucked off the kitchen is a delightful snug, a place to retire to and snooze, or watch an afternoon of sports. Completing the ground floor is a useful utility room, off which is the converted garage now set up as a WORK FROM HOME OFFICE AND GYM.
The galleried landing with exposed oak beams, provides doorways to each of the 5 BEDROOMS, all individually unique, some with high angular ceilings, one with its own bullseye window which captures beautifully, farmland views and the breathtaking Bosley Cloud. The master bedroom is large, having angular ceilings, exposed oak beams, and is complemented with its own en suite shower room and dressing room. Finally, is the family bathroom with three piece crisp white suite with shower over the bath.
Outside, as befits a property of distinction, and to the rear, are the main gardens, which enjoy a sunny aspect, with a deep and extensive Indian stone paved terrace providing mountains of space for outside dining. The terrace overlooks the open plan lawns, which captures the afternoon sun.
Additional land is situated a few yards away, to the north-west of the dwelling, and comprises an area of grazing with mains water supply, and two gated accesses which extends to just under 3 acres (or thereabouts).
We implore you to book an internal viewing to witness everything that’s on offer here….and we are sure you won’t be disappointed!
