Set on a large corner plot and backing directly onto the Macclesfield Canal, this five-bedroom detached house offers substantial family accommodation and immediate scope to personalise. Three reception rooms—including an open-plan living-through-kitchen—give flexible living space, while a timber-decked sun terrace and generous gardens provide excellent outdoor entertaining and play space. The property includes a garage and double-width driveway.
The location is a major asset: a quiet cul-de-sac in Mossley, within easy walking distance of local shops, canal and green routes, and well-regarded secondary schooling. Commuters benefit from good road links to the North West and a local railway station for Manchester connections.
The house requires renovation throughout and will reward a buyer prepared to invest. Services appear in place (mains gas central heating, double glazing installed before 2002), but cosmetic and likely mechanical/updating work will be needed to bring the property fully up to modern standards. EPC grade C; cavity walls are assumed insulated.
Practical points to note: the tenure is freehold, the plot is larger-than-average at around 0.12 acres, and local crime levels are very low. Council tax band is expensive, and the accommodation only includes two bathrooms for five bedrooms, which may influence family planning or refurbishment scope.
