Description

The Property
Occupying an enviable corner position within one of Macclesfield's most sought-after residential developments, this exceptional five-bedroom detached family home has been significantly upgraded and meticulously maintained in recent years to create a truly beautiful turnkey residence. Enjoying a generous plot with attractive open aspects across a mature green, the property offers an outstanding combination of space, style and privacy, with the added benefit of not being directly overlooked.

Extending to approximately 2,184 sq ft, the accommodation has been thoughtfully enhanced to suit modern family living, providing a versatile layout with spacious reception areas, contemporary fittings and superb outdoor entertaining space. From the moment you arrive, the property's immaculate presentation, substantial double-width driveway and twin garage immediately set the tone for the quality found throughout.

The welcoming entrance hall leads to a beautifully appointed living room, tastefully decorated in contemporary tones and centred around an attractive feature fireplace. A separate study provides the ideal home office or playroom, while the generous dining room offers the perfect setting for family meals and entertaining. The heart of the home is undoubtedly the stylish breakfast kitchen, fitted with quality cabinetry, work surfaces and integrated appliances, complemented by a practical utility room. Beyond, the magnificent conservatory creates an impressive additional reception space, complete with a log-burning stove and French doors opening onto the landscaped rear garden.

To the first floor, a spacious landing serves five well-proportioned bedrooms, including four excellent doubles and a generous fifth bedroom. The principal suite benefits from fitted wardrobes and a contemporary en-suite shower room, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a beautifully presented family bathroom.
