This two-bedroom end-of-terrace Victorian house on Foden Street offers a compact, well-located home within a five-minute walk of Macclesfield town centre. The property has been maintained over the years but now requires updating and cosmetic renovation; it’s presented cleanly and could be lived in while improvements are carried out. With 732 sq ft of accommodation, the layout is traditional: lounge, dining room, kitchen and utility on the ground floor, two bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs.
Practical features include a mains gas boiler with radiators, uPVC double glazing (install date unknown) and a private paved garden with a substantial timber shed. The building is solid brick and was constructed c.1900–1929; walls are likely uninsulated as built, so buyers should budget for potential insulation improvements. Flood risk is low and crime levels are reported as low.
This is a leasehold property with a very long lease remaining (817 years), making long-term ownership straightforward. Parking is on-street and Foden Street is unadopted with no formal parking agreement, though neighbourly parking arrangements are typically available. Broadband is fast and mobile signal is excellent, suitable for home working or streaming.
The house suits a small family, first-time buyer or buyer seeking a renovation project in a convenient town-centre-adjacent location. Local schools rated Good/Outstanding are nearby, and the area is classified as an affluent, family-oriented neighbourhood. Note the property needs renovation and potential energy-efficiency work (insulation, possible modernisation of services) which should be factored into budget plans.
