Description

WELCOME TO BLACKSHAW STREET, MACCLESFIELD

Nestled along a charming cobbled street within one of Macclesfield’s most characterful locations, this attractive two double bedroom terraced cottage offers a wonderful blend of period charm, practical living space, and a delightful southerly facing garden. Offered for sale with no onward chain, the property is ready for its next owner to enjoy and presents an excellent opportunity for first-time buyers, professionals, downsizers, or investors alike.

With two reception rooms, a useful cellar, SOUTHERLY FACING cottage-style garden, and a highly convenient location close to SOUTH PARK, the town centre and railway station, this is a home that perfectly combines character and convenience.

CHARMING COTTAGE CHARACTER

From the moment you arrive, the property's attractive frontage and cobbled street setting create a welcoming first impression. Inside, the home retains much of its traditional appeal, with features including stone flagged flooring, a wood-burning stove, and cottage-style proportions throughout.

The living room provides a cosy and inviting space centred around the attractive fireplace and wood-burning stove, making it the perfect place to relax during the colder months. Beyond, the separate dining room offers excellent space for entertaining and family dining while also providing access to the cellar below.

PRACTICAL LIVING SPACES

The kitchen is fitted with a range of storage units and work surfaces and enjoys direct access to the rear garden through an attractive stable-style door, enhancing the cottage feel and creating a lovely connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces.

A useful basement cellar provides valuable additional storage space and offers light, power, and heating, making it a little more practical than many traditional cellar spaces.

TWO GENEROUS DOUBLE BEDROOMS

The first floor offers two excellent double bedrooms, both of generous proportions. The principal bedroom enjoys two rear facing windows overlooking the garden and benefits from built-in storage, while the second bedroom offers further spacious accommodation and an outlook to the front. Completing the first floor is a bathroom fitted with a modern white suite and heated towel rail.

DELIGHTFUL SOUTHERLY FACING GARDEN

A particular highlight of the property is the delightful southerly facing rear garden. Designed in a traditional cottage style, the garden enjoys excellent levels of sunshine and provides a wonderful outdoor retreat for relaxing, gardening, or entertaining. Features include attractive cobbled areas, raised flower beds, a brick-built barbecue, outside tap, and a substantial garden shed offering excellent storage.

WELL MAINTAINED & ENERGY EFFICIENT

The property benefits from gas central heating via an Ideal Logic combination boiler and has recently undergone electrical improvement works, with an Electrical Installation Certificate completed in May 2025 and a boiler service carried out in October 2025. With an EPC rating of C and Council Tax Band A, the property offers attractive running costs and excellent efficiency for a home of this character.

A SUPERB LOCATION

The location is another significant advantage. Just a short stroll away is the beautiful South Park, offering approximately 44 acres of parkland together with tennis courts, a BMX track, skate park, bowling green, and duck pond.
The town centre and Macclesfield railway station are also within easy walking distance, making this an ideal home for commuters seeking direct services to Manchester and London while enjoying a quieter lifestyle away from the city.

A ‘CHAIN FREE’ CHARACTER HOME

Combining period charm, practical accommodation, outdoor space, and a highly convenient location, this delightful cottage offers a fantastic opportunity to acquire a character home ready to enjoy from day one.
