Detached garage, off-road parking and electric car charging point

Walking distance to Mossley schools, local shops and Congleton station
Council tax is expensive; typical period-home maintenance expected
An impressive five-bedroom Edwardian detached house set on a large corner plot in the heart of Mossley, Congleton. The home combines striking period features — stained-glass bay windows, high ceilings and decorative fireplaces — with modern upgrades such as a fitted kitchen, underfloor heating in parts and an electric car charging point. Multiple reception rooms and a conservatory create flexible living space for growing families.
The wraparound, well-established gardens, detached garage with loft storage and off-road parking provide strong outdoor and storage advantages. Practical ground-floor amenities include a utility room, downstairs WC and direct garden access from several rooms, making everyday family life straightforward. The property is within walking distance of local shops, Mossley schools and Congleton station, with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal supporting commuting and home working.
Buyers should be aware of a few material considerations: the property’s solid brick walls are likely uninsulated (as-built before 1900), which may mean higher heating costs or work to add wall insulation. Council tax is noted as expensive, and the home offers two bathrooms for five bedrooms — potentially necessitating adaptation for larger families. General maintenance typical of period homes should be expected despite sympathetic modern updates.
This house will suit families seeking space, character and a private garden in a very affluent, low-crime neighbourhood. It also offers scope for further improvement or reconfiguration to increase comfort and value, subject to planning and conservation considerations.
