A useful under-stairs storage cupboard, currently utilised as a pantry, further enhances the practicality of the home.

To the first floor, the principal bedroom enjoys the benefit of a stylish en-suite shower room, whilst two further well-proportioned bedrooms are served by a modern family bathroom, all presented to an excellent standard.

Albion Lock is a sought-after modern development, ideally positioned for convenient access to Sandbach town centre, highly regarded schools, excellent road and rail links, and a wealth of nearby countryside walks, making it an ideal setting for families and commuters alike.
