Townley Mill, Townley Street, Macclesfield

Converted in 2001, Townley Mill forms part of Macclesfield’s rich silk heritage — a town also known as the “Silk Town,” where over 70 mills helped shape the local landscape and community during the 18th and 19th centuries. While not as widely documented as some of the town’s landmark mills, Townley Mill remains a lasting piece of that industrial past, reflecting the period of expansion that began in the mid-1700s.

Today, it sits just off Sunderland Street in the heart of Macclesfield, offering convenient access to the town centre and train station, which is approximately a five-minute walk away. Occupying the south-east corner of the building on the top floor (second floor), the apartment enjoys an elevated position with good natural light.

The building is accessed via a gated communal flagged courtyard to the side, leading into a well-maintained communal hallway with intercom system and stairwell rising to the upper floors.

As you step into the apartment, you immediately get a sense of the building’s heritage, with exposed brickwork and cast iron columns thoughtfully retained as part of the conversion, giving the space a distinctive industrial character.

The open plan living, dining and kitchen area is naturally lit and well-proportioned, designed for both everyday living and entertaining, with clearly defined areas for relaxing, dining and cooking.

The kitchen is fitted with a range of modern high gloss cabinets with contrasting work surfaces, incorporating a stainless steel sink, oven with grill, four-ring electric hob with extractor hood, and a range of integrated appliances including dishwasher, washing machine and fridge freezer.

The main bedroom is a comfortable double room, complete with built-in storage housing the hot water cylinder, whilst the second bedroom benefits from dual aspect windows, allowing for plenty of natural light and offering flexibility as a guest room, home office, additional bedroom or reception room.

The bathroom is finished with a modern four-piece suite, consisting of a bath, separate shower enclosure, wash hand basin and WC, all of which is complemented by contemporary tiling and a heated towel radiator.

The apartment is double glazed throughout and warmed via electric heating.

Externally, the development benefits from a resident underground car park with an allocated parking space, accessed via a roller shutter door. In addition, a pay and display car park is located directly in front of the mill, providing convenient additional parking for visitors.
