## Description

The porch opens directly into the living room, a bright and comfortable space with a wide front window, a fireplace and the staircase rising along one side. Its open proportions allow room for seating and occasional furniture without interrupting the natural route through to the rear of the home.

Beyond is the dining kitchen, fitted with white cabinetry, wood effect worktops and a tiled splashback. There is space for a dining table, while a window above the sink looks towards the garden and a glazed rear door provides direct access outside. This clear connection makes the kitchen as useful for everyday meals as it is for relaxed summer gatherings.

Upstairs, the landing connects two bedrooms and the bathroom. Both bedrooms have windows bringing in natural light, with the main bedroom overlooking the rear. The bathroom is finished with white metro tiling and includes a bath with shower above, wash basin and WC.

The rear garden is a particular strength. A central lawn is framed by paved areas for seating and planting, with timber fencing enclosing the space. Set to one side, the separate outbuilding is currently arranged as a work area, offering scope for hobbies, storage or home working. Its use should remain subject to the buyer's own requirements and checks.

Moss Lane is well placed for making use of Macclesfield's shops, cafes and services, with the town centre and railway station providing connections beyond the town. Road links include routes towards Congleton, Buxton and the wider Cheshire area, while South Park offers open green space within Macclesfield.

Description

This well presented two bedroom home combines an easy to manage layout with a generous enclosed garden and a separate outbuilding that creates useful space away from the main accommodation. Paved frontage, a welcoming porch and a smart brick exterior give the property a neat approach.
The porch opens directly into the living room, a bright and comfortable space with a wide front window, a fireplace and the staircase rising along one side. Its open proportions allow room for seating and occasional furniture without interrupting the natural route through to the rear of the home.
Beyond is the dining kitchen, fitted with white cabinetry, wood effect worktops and a tiled splashback. There is space for a dining table, while a window above the sink looks towards the garden and a glazed rear door provides direct access outside. This clear connection makes the kitchen as useful for everyday meals as it is for relaxed summer gatherings.
Upstairs, the landing connects two bedrooms and the bathroom. Both bedrooms have windows bringing in natural light, with the main bedroom overlooking the rear. The bathroom is finished with white metro tiling and includes a bath with shower above, wash basin and WC.
The rear garden is a particular strength. A central lawn is framed by paved areas for seating and planting, with timber fencing enclosing the space. Set to one side, the separate outbuilding is currently arranged as a work area, offering scope for hobbies, storage or home working.
