Open Event Sun 19th July | Beacon View, Marple

7 Beacon View is a brilliant option if you're after a four-bedroom family home in Marple without stretching beyond the £500,000 mark. Tucked away on a quiet estate, you've got lovely views to the rear, plenty of parking, a detached garage, a downstairs WC and even a conservatory. It really does tick a lot of boxes.

Step through the front door into a bright, welcoming hallway with stairs to the first floor, a handy downstairs WC, and doors leading through to both the kitchen and the living space.

The lounge and dining room is a great size, stretching from the front to the back of the house. There's a large window overlooking the front garden, sliding patio doors into the conservatory, and one of my favourite little features... a serving hatch through to the kitchen. It might sound old school, but when you've got hungry kids waiting at the table, every second counts!

The conservatory is a lovely extra reception space and looks straight out over the rear garden, making it a great spot to sit with a coffee or just enjoy the view.

Upstairs you'll find four genuinely good-sized bedrooms and a spacious family bathroom. It's a really straightforward layout, but that's part of the appeal. If you need four proper bedrooms, this gives you exactly that, without squeezing anyone into a tiny box room.

Outside, the location works really well too. Being right at the entrance to Beacon View makes it an easy walk into Marple, and the canal is only around five minutes away on foot.

The front garden is low maintenance but full of colour, while the driveway runs down the side of the house to the rear, where you'll find a generous patio, lawn, detached garage with a workshop behind it, and because you're not backing directly onto another property, you get a really nice sense of privacy too.
