Longbutts Lane, Gawsworth, Macclesfield

Set within the heart of the picturesque village of Gawsworth, this well-presented ground floor apartment offers an excellent opportunity for first-time buyers, downsizers, or buy-to-let investors looking for something ready to move into within a sought-after village setting.

Gawsworth is one of those villages that feels quietly timeless. Positioned on the edge of Macclesfield, it offers a genuine semi-rural feel whilst remaining just a short drive from the town centre and train station, with direct rail links into Manchester and London. Surrounded by open countryside, farmland and winding country lanes, it’s a setting that appeals to those wanting space and a slower pace of life, without feeling cut off.

At the centre of village life sits the historic core of Gawsworth, with the striking Gawsworth Old Hall, St James' Church, and the old rectory, all surrounded by ornamental pools and mature grounds — a reminder of the village’s deep-rooted history dating back to the Domesday Book. Alongside its heritage, the village has a strong sense of community, with a primary school, village hall, community hub and shop, local pubs, sports facilities and regular village events, whilst Gawsworth Hall plays host to outdoor theatre and music events through the summer months.

The apartment itself offers straightforward, low-maintenance living with a practical layout. As you step inside, you’re welcomed into a generous open plan living kitchen space, creating a sociable layout that works well for modern day living. The kitchen has been fitted in a timeless Shaker-style design with integrated appliances and good storage, whilst the living area offers comfortable space to relax and unwind.

The bedroom sits to the rear of the property and offers a well-proportioned double room with useful built-in storage, whilst the shower room has been fitted with a modern white suite, corner shower enclosure and benefits from both a rear-facing window and lantern roof light, helping to create a bright and airy feel.

To the rear, there is access to a shared garden area, providing outside space to enjoy during the warmer months.

Whether you’re looking for your first home, a lock-up-and-leave, or an investment in a village location with lasting appeal, this apartment offers an attractive opportunity in one of Cheshire’s most characterful settings.
