Chiltern Avenue, Macclesfield, SK11

Chiltern Avenue is a quiet backwater location, which has historically proved highly popular with families due to the convenience and choice of popular primary and secondary schools, which are all easily accessible by foot from this particular area.

Macclesfield town centre and mainline Manchester Piccadilly (25 mins) & London Euston (90 mins) railway station, can be reached by car within five minutes, and by foot in approximately twenty five minutes. For those keen on outdoor activities, and of course for those with dogs; Macclesfield's largest park (South Park), boasts 44 acres of open parkland and leisure opportunities.

Number 12 Chiltern Avenue is a traditional style family home of red brick elevations under a tiled pitched roof. Surrounding properties are a mixture of similar styles, that include semi-detached and detached family homes, as well as semi-detached and detached bungalows. This is a community area, with many homes happily occupied by the same residents for more than a decade, and often much longer - a testament to the convenience and popularity of the location.

The accommodation is naturally bright, thanks to the architectural design during this particular building era, that included bigger windows than comparable modern properties. The main living space is also of an open design, which helps natural light to flow through the well presented accommodation.

The property has benefitted some major refurbishment during the present vendor's ownership. We are informed that the property was completely rewired in 2020, whilst at the same time a brand new combination boiler and central heating system, which can be controlled both within the home and also remotely via a Hive app; was installed by British Gas. In 2021, the majority of the windows and doors [including bi-fold doors to the garden] were replaced with new double glazed sealed units.

From the front, the property is accessed via an open entrance porch and front door that opens to a welcoming reception hallway. The two original separate reception rooms were originally divided by twin doors (which the vendor has retained), however, the living space has now become far more versatile and usable as an open-plan design. Natural light better serves this great living space, due to the dual aspects and fabulous bi-folding doors that open directly to the private rear garden.

The kitchen is of a good size and features a comprehensive range of kitchen cabinets, providing ample storage along with a perfect siting for the Worcester Bosch combination boiler [informed as replaced sept 2020]. Further storage is provided by means of an original walk-in pantry cupboard.

The first floor landing features a large window to the gable, which again offers an abundance of natural light. Two generous double-sized bedrooms, along with a further spacious single bedroom, provide perfect first floor accommodation for a small family, or a couple who may require an occassional guest room and home office arrangement.

The bathroom incorporates a modern suite, with a bath and a fabulous monsoon rainfall and a separate shower head attachment over the bath - an ideal proposition for adults and children alike.

Gardens to both the front and rear benefit this super home. The rear garden has enclosed borders and is of above-average size - typical of the generosity of plot sizes from this build era. A sectional concrete garage offers a basic, but useful, garden and bicycle storage facility. A long driveway stretches from the front boundary, all the way down the side of the property; providing private parking and hardstanding for several vehicles. A small lawn-laid front garden provides frontage from Chiltern Avenue.

This is an ideal proposition for a number of potential buyers; whether a first home, an upsize, or even a downsize. Viewing appointments are highly advised at interested parties earliest opportunity, and can be arrange by contacting the sole selling estate agent, Simeon Rains in association with The Good Estate Agent Macclesfield.
