Description
The annexe has been thoughtfully converted and includes its own living room, kitchen, shower room and bedroom, all connected internally to the main house. It’s a really versatile space that can adapt depending on what you need, now or in the future.
For anyone looking after family, it works brilliantly for multi-generational living. It gives older relatives their own independence and privacy, while still feeling part of the home day to day.
If you’ve got older children, it’s equally ideal. It creates that bit of separation that everyone starts to appreciate, giving them their own space to live, work or come and go, without feeling completely detached.
And for those thinking a little more commercially, there’s clear potential here too. Whether it’s occasional Airbnb use, a more consistent rental setup, or even just hosting guests in a more self-contained way, the layout gives you options without impacting the main house.
The main home itself is generous in size and really well balanced. There are four good-sized bedrooms, including a main bedroom with en-suite and fitted wardrobes, three reception rooms that can flex around family life, and a contemporary kitchen that sits at the heart of it all. A spacious four-piece bathroom serves the rest of the home.
Practical touches like a large downstairs cloakroom, utility room and separate WC just make day to day living that bit easier, especially for busy households.
Outside, the plot is a real strength. The gardens wrap around the home, offering a good level of privacy while still feeling open and usable, perfect for families, entertaining, or just enjoying the space.
High Lane itself is a great place to be. There’s a real community feel, with local pubs, cafés, independent shops and clubs all adding to it. You’ve got a bus stop right by the house connecting you into Stockport, Buxton and Manchester Airport, and train stations at Middlewood, Disley and Hazel Grove all within easy reach.
For anyone who enjoys the outdoors, you’re spoiled here. Canal walks, green spaces, golf courses and Lyme Park are all close by, so it’s easy to get out and make the most of it.
All in all, it’s a home that offers more than just space. It gives you flexibility, options, and a setup that can evolve with you over time, which is what makes it such a rare find.

Rent-driven metrics
Based on OpenRent comparables.
- Rent ratio — Monthly rent ÷ purchase price (1% rule). 1%+ = strong, 0.8–1% = okay, <0.8% = weak for cashflow.
- Max investor price — Rent ÷ 0.8%; the price at which rent would be 0.8% of price (Stoke-style target).
- Target investor price — Rent ÷ 1%; the price at which rent would be 1% of price (strong cashflow band).
- 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.
- ROI — Annual profit ÷ cash in (deposit + 4% purchase costs).
