An Extended 4-Bedroom Semi-Detached Family Home Complete With A Brand New Roof! Situated In This Very Quiet & Privately Owned Location & Affording Spectacular Elevated Views Over The Town & Peak District Hills. Walking Distance To The Town Centre & Surrounded By Good Schools & Macclesfield College.
A rare opportunity to secure a 4-bedroom family home situated in such a quiet and convenient town centre location. Highfield Road forms a small residential community that occupies a fabulous elevated and tranquil location, affording stunning over-roof-top views of the town and distant Peak District hills. Accessed via a privately owned leafy cobbled lane leading from Crompton Road, residents are favoured with the most convenient of locations, being just a few minutes walk from the town centre, schools and local amenities. The majority of properties occupying this rather secluded little community, are of traditional architectural style, dating from the later half of the 1920's - an era that has proved most popular with buyers historically, due to the solid craftsman build quality and roomy accommodation. This particular property retains much original character, including chimneys that offer the opportunity for the new owner to enjoy an open fire on those chilly winter days. The main reception room and two bedrooms occupying the front aspect, enjoy spectacular elevated views as previously mentioned; over the town and distant hills. The properties here are generally well set back from the access lane; fronted by long gardens with private parking created at the foot of each. The accommodation was double-height extended to one side a number of years ago; providing for a generous extra bedroom on the first floor, along with space to create a downstairs shower room off the entrance hallway (presently serving as a spacious downstairs WC & cloakroom), and transforming the original compact kitchen into a space that has become the hub of the home. A brand new roof has just been commissioned and work completed in February 2024. The hallway is spacious and provides useful understairs storage. The front reception room affords stunning elevated views from the bay fronted window; the distant Peak hills rising in the distance over town rooftops. Original chimney breasts offer the potential to create open fires, or perhaps install woodburners? The rear reception room has been slightly extended in the past, and features French doors which open to the private, well-screened rear garden. Moving along to the dining kitchen; which is fitted with a comprehensive range of shaker-style cabinets with integrated appliances, and designated informal breakfast and dining areas. The first floor provides four bedrooms made up of three doubles, and one single - which is adaptable to accommodate a work from home office. The roof space offers good storage, and benefits from partial boarding, as well as the installation of a pull-down ladder. To the outside; the property is fronted by a long lawn garden, which enjoys an easterly aspect, attracting direct sunlight throughout the morning on clear days, before the rear westerly facing garden attracts the afternoon and early evening share. Private parking for several vehicles is provided to both the foot of the front garden, and also via a long driveway to one side. The accommodation is warmed via a gas combination dual-heating boiler, whilst the windows are double glazed for ease of ongoing maintenance and insulation. Viewing appointments are highly advised and can be arranged both within, and outside of working hours. To arrange a convenient appointment, please contact Simeon Rains, in association with The Good Estate Agent - our offices are located directly opposite the railway station at 52 Waters Green.
