Set back in a semi‑rural location on the outskirts of Marple, this 18th‑century former farmhouse has been sympathetically renovated to combine period character with modern living. The ground floor offers flexible reception space — living room with feature fireplace, family room, and a large kitchen with central island opening into a sitting/dining area — ideal for family life and entertaining. A utility and downstairs WC add practical convenience.
Upstairs the master suite includes a dressing room and en suite, with three further bedrooms served by a family bathroom and a Jack‑and‑Jill en suite between two rooms. The accommodation amounts to approximately 2,792 sq ft, providing generous room sizes throughout and high ceilings in many principal rooms. Recent works mean the interior is stylish and move‑in ready, while double glazing and a gas boiler provide modern thermal comfort.
Outside the house sits on a substantial plot with extensive lawns, mature hedging, a large decked entertaining area, detached garage, workshop/garden store and broad paved driveway providing ample off‑street parking. The location is semi‑rural yet within easy reach of Marple’s amenities, schools and train services into Manchester, and there is no onward chain.
Important considerations: the property dates from 1753 and retains solid brick walls that are assumed to be uninsulated, so buyers should factor potential insulation or energy‑efficiency works into plans. Council tax is high. Overall, this is a substantial, characterful family home with scope for further enhancement on a very large plot.
