No onward chain and set within the converted Silk Mill, this duplex apartment offers loft-style living close to Macclesfield town centre and the train station. Vaulted ceilings, exposed brick and large industrial windows give the open-plan living space strong character and an airy feel. The mezzanine bedroom suits a double bed and benefits from useful storage.
Practical points include a long lease (c.800 years from 1999), a residents’ car park at the rear and an EPC rating of C. Service charges run at about £1,662 per year (billed £831 every six months). Council tax is band A, keeping running costs relatively low.
Buyers should note heating is via electric storage heaters and broadband speeds are reported as slow — important for those who work from home. The apartment is well presented throughout but, as with many conversions, the mezzanine layout and compact shower room may not suit everyone. Overall, this is a characterful, low-maintenance option for a single occupant, couple or investor wanting central location and good onward rental or resale potential.
