A compact one-bedroom end-terrace cottage tucked on a quiet backwater of Macclesfield, this property suits a first-time buyer or couple seeking an affordable, well-presented home close to town. The living room and kitchen are neatly finished and the rear flagged courtyard provides a private outdoor spot without maintenance-heavy gardens. Council tax is low (Band A) and the lease is long, which helps running costs and ownership security.
The interior is small but thoughtfully arranged over two floors: an elegant living room with a fitted kitchen to the rear, a double bedroom upstairs and a modern shower room. Double glazing and recent cosmetic care keep the home bright and move-in ready. The property’s period brickwork, chimney-breast feature and compact footprint are typical of Victorian terraced cottages and add character.
Buyers should note a few factual points before viewing. The wider area records higher crime levels and local deprivation indicators, so do consider personal security and commute choices. The listing gives mixed information on heating (vendor text mentions gas central heating while data lists electric storage heaters) — buyers should confirm the heating type and costs. EPC is listed as TBC. The property is Leasehold (long lease reported), and the building appears to have solid brick walls likely without modern cavity insulation.
Given its size (approximately 437 sq ft) and modest layout, this house is best for someone prioritising location, low council tax and a low-maintenance outdoor space rather than spacious accommodation. It’s a straightforward buy for a first-time purchaser or an investor seeking a lettable one-bedroom in a town centre location, provided they accept the compact layout and check service and safety details.
