Hollins Road, Macclesfield, SK11

Hollins Road lies to the south of Macclesfield town centre and on the fringe of open rolling countryside. The location is within easy walking distance of the town centre and yet neighbours the lovely Macclesfield canal, as well as the open greenery of Macclesfield Golf Course.

This particular true cottage property has been the subject of a comprehensive and stunning refurbishment by the current owners. A complete back-to-brick renovation in 2008 has resulted in the creation of a property of immense character and simply stunning features.

We are informed that the renovation included a full rewire, replumbing, and a complete re-plaster. The lighting is installed with a unique Lutron system [lutron.com] - intelligent lighting that can be controlled remotely. Internally, the entire ground floor living space features bespoke Italian 90 x 45 x 15cm antique honed limestone floor tiles laid on 50mm insulated backer board with thermostatically controlled ‘Warmup’ electric under tile heating, whilst a hand stone masoned bespoke Derbyshire Inglenook fireplace, complete with a cast iron wood and back boiler burner, provides cosy fires and heat for those snug winter days and evenings. We are advised that the property was recently upgraded with a brand new energy efficient combination boiler in 2023 and is gas certified and under warranty until 2033. 

The cottage kitchen is designed and built with high-end integrated appliances by the German manufacturer ‘Miele’ and is finished with solid 30mm ‘Verde Fantastico’ Granite worktops. The kitchen provides access to a mature leafy garden area, which is actually registered as communal shared space for the immediate neighbouring properties, however, the owner has stated that each property actually maintains the areas that border their own properties. Evidence to support this will be witnessed by the investment of solid antique finished natural limestone slabs that the vendor landscaped at the same time as the house renovation. Located to the far rear of the garden, a useful renovated outbuilding with power connected, provides useful garden storage, and we are advised this store is for the sole benefit of this particular property. 

To the first floor and accessed via an open-plan staircase from the living area, a gallery landing leads to two double-sized bedrooms, along with a luxurious contemporary-styled bathroom with surfaces finished in Spanish ‘Emporador’ solid marble tiles and bespoke slabs.

This is a true masterpiece of artisan craftsmanship. With the solid stone and marble alone standing as a handsome investment, before taking account of the months of labour, behind-the-scenes wiring and plumbing; and finally the attention to detail of installing the sheer level of quality fixtures and fittings throughout this fabulous home. This is without doubt a very rare opportunity indeed, to secure the most unique of homes.

Viewing appointments are highly advised in order to truly appreciate the quality and presentation of this most desirable of homes. Viewing appointments and further details are welcomed by the sole selling estate agent, Simeon Rains in association with The Good Estate Agent Macclesfield. Our offices are located directly opposite Macclesfield railway station, at 52 Waters Green, Macclesfield SK11 6JT.

Outside - Rear Garden: To the rear of the property & accessed via the kitchen & also via a side gated entrance path, there is a lovely mature garden. The entire outside space is titled as communal to both this property & also the neighbouring properties; however, the owner has confirmed that each cottage has adopted a strip each that runs directly to the full length and width of their individual properties. This appears evident due to the investment the current owner has made in landscaping the garden area the rear of this property. However, it should be noted that we are informed, as previously mentioned, that officially the entire garden area is communal to the residents.

To the far rear of the garden, there is a useful brick outhouse, which we are informed belongs to this property.
