Description

Occupying a generous plot on the popular Macclesfield Road, this attractive 1930s semi-detached home presents an exciting opportunity to acquire a property with scope for modernisation and extension (subject to the necessary consents) in one of Cheshire's most desirable villages.

The property offers well-proportioned living space throughout and briefly comprises an entrance hall, spacious reception room, a kitchen, and a conservatory enjoying views over the rear garden. To the first floor are three bedrooms, including two generous double bedrooms and a single, together with a family bathroom.

While requiring updating, the property provides the perfect blank canvas for buyers wishing to create a tailored home of their own. Character features, generous room proportions and the sizeable plot combine to offer potential for enhancement.

A substantial driveway provides ample off-road parking for vehicles, whilst the front and rear gardens offer excellent outdoor space. A detached brick-built garage to the rear provides additional storage, workshop space or further potential.

Holmes Chapel is a thriving and highly sought-after Cheshire village, renowned for its blend of rural charm and everyday convenience. The village centre offers an excellent selection of independent shops, cafés, restaurants, supermarkets and everyday amenities, together with highly regarded primary and secondary schools, making it particularly popular with families.

Holmes Chapel railway station provides direct services to Manchester, Crewe and London via connecting routes, while the nearby M6 and A50 offer excellent road links across the North West. Surrounded by beautiful Cheshire countryside, residents can enjoy an abundance of scenic walks, cycling routes and nearby attractions, whilst the larger market towns of Knutsford Alderley Edge, Sandbach and Congleton are all within easy reach.

  • Gross yield — Annual rent as % of purchase price (no costs).
  • Cost-to-rent — Price ÷ annual rent (from OpenRent comparables). Under 14× = strong, 14–16× = acceptable, 17×+ = compressed.
  • Cashflow — Rent minus mortgage, 10% maintenance, £25/mo compliance. Assumes 75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term.
