This compact Victorian mid-terrace cottage offers a characterful starter home in Macclesfield’s Black Road Conservation area. Stone-flagged floors, exposed beams and a feature fireplace give immediate period charm, while uPVC double glazing and a gas combi boiler provide modern comforts.
Layout is straightforward: ground-floor living room, kitchen/dining with patio doors to a private stone-flagged rear garden, and a generous double bedroom plus shower room on the first floor. The house is small (approx. 350 sq ft) but well presented, suited to a first-time buyer or downsizer seeking a low-maintenance urban base with countryside access nearby.
Practical points to note: the property is leasehold (very long lease — c.792 years remaining) and the solid brick walls likely lack cavity insulation, so heating costs and retrofit options should be considered. Ceiling heights are modest and room sizes compact; this is a cosy home rather than a spacious family house.
Overall this is a rare affordable entry into a desirable conservation setting, with good local amenities, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Buyers seeking character, a manageable garden and convenient town access will appreciate the property; those requiring more space or modern thermal performance should factor possible upgrades into their plans.
