Summary - 1, ASTLE HOUSE, MACCLESFIELD, CHELFORD SK10 4TA
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Peaceful hamlet home with large plot and strong renovation potential.
Large, well-screened lawned garden with mature hedges and shed
Generous driveway offering multiple off-street parking spaces
Chain-free freehold; first time on market in over 60 years
Superb open countryside views from principal rooms
Requires modernisation throughout; renovation potential and extension scope
Septic tank drainage noted as non-compliant with regulations
Solid brick walls assumed without cavity insulation; energy efficiency limited
Very slow broadband speeds despite excellent mobile signal
Set at the end of a private lane in an attractive rural hamlet, this red-brick semi-detached house offers generous gardens and uninterrupted countryside views. The layout suits a retiring couple or downsizer seeking peaceful surroundings with scope to personalise and modernise. The property is offered freehold and chain-free for the first time in decades.
Internally the home provides a large through lounge with a stone fireplace, a fitted breakfast kitchen, downstairs WC and three well-proportioned bedrooms upstairs. The principal bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes and a walk-in cloak cupboard. The plot is notably larger than average for this style and offers clear potential for extension or remodelling, subject to planning consent.
Buyers should note material updates are needed: the house requires modernisation throughout and walls are likely solid brick with no cavity insulation. Drainage is via a septic tank currently described as non-compliant with regulations, broadband speeds are very slow, and council tax is above average. These are important practical considerations for anyone viewing.
Practical positives include generous off-street parking on a long paved driveway, a substantial lawned rear garden with mature screening, low local crime, and excellent mobile signal. The hamlet location is quiet but within a short drive of Chelford village amenities and better shopping, rail and road links at Alderley Edge, Wilmslow and Knutsford.
