Whalley Hayes, Macclesfield, SK10

The classical architecture of this substantial period property dates back to the Edwardian era when homes were built with elegant proportions and natural light as an essential. Its balanced blend of period charm and modern adaptability makes it a versatile home.

Beyond this beautiful facade is a home which has been comprehensively, yet sympathetically updated and the results are quite outstanding. The character of the original building is complemented beautifully with a range of high quality, contemporary fittings, which have been carefully selected. A highly efficient gas fired heating system has also been installed.

On the ground floor there is a hall, three reception rooms, a fabulous kitchen which opens onto the garden and a rear porch, whilst to the lower ground floor there is a cellar room and a utility room. To the first floor there are three double bedrooms with one benefiting from an en-suite and a large family bathroom. The final fourth bedroom is located on the second floor. The property is double glazed throughout and is warm with gas fired central heating.

Although the official access for the property is on Whaley Hayes where the property is set back behind a dwarf wall and front garden, one may consider Grosvenor Street to be the day to day access as the gated drive and a detached garage are accessed from here. There is also a lawn and raised patio garden which is located off the kitchen and ideal for alfresco dining. The rear of this home enjoys a southerly aspect.

The property is located in the centre of town yet tucked away. This is an excellent opportunity for one to obtain something of a hidden gem.
