Brookfield Lane, Macclesfield

If you’re looking for a three-bedroom home that you can put your own stamp on, this semi-detached property on Brookfield Lane offers plenty of scope in a well-established residential part of Macclesfield.

The house would now benefit from a programme of modernisation internally, but that is very much part of the opportunity here. There is already a good amount of accommodation across two floors, including three well-proportioned bedrooms, while outside you have off-road parking and a particularly generous rear garden.

The location is another strong point. Brookfield Lane is a mature residential road within easy reach of the local parade of shops and amenities along Buxton Road, while Puss Bank Primary School is also close by. Macclesfield town centre and the railway station are both within walking distance, making this a convenient position for access to the town as well as rail connections towards Manchester and London.

You enter into a central hallway with stairs rising to the first floor and access to the ground-floor accommodation. At the front of the house there is the added benefit of a separate WC and shower room, while the kitchen sits towards the rear and has windows to two aspects together with a stable-style door opening directly onto the garden.

The living room is a particularly good size, extending to almost 16ft and enjoying plenty of natural light from its dual aspect with a front bay, rear door opening to the garden and beamed ceilings with a stone fireplace. 

Upstairs, the proportions continue to work well. The main bedroom measures approximately 16ft in length and again benefits from windows to both the front and rear. There are two further bedrooms, with the second overlooking the rear garden and enjoying views towards the surrounding hilltops in the distance.

Outside, the house is set back from Brookfield Lane with a cobbled and paved frontage providing off-road parking for one vehicle, alongside established planting.

The rear garden is one of the property's biggest assets. Generous in size and offering plenty of scope for improvement, it currently incorporates patio areas, established beds and a large central area which could be returned to lawn or redesigned to suit the next owner's needs. There is also gated access to the side of the house.

There is undoubtedly work to do here, but for a buyer who would rather improve a home to their own taste than pay a premium for somebody else's choices, Brookfield Lane presents an interesting opportunity. With three bedrooms, good room sizes, parking, a generous garden and a convenient location, the fundamentals are already in place.

The cobbled frontage incorporates several raised beds containing a variety of established plants, shrubs and bushes, creating an attractive approach to the property.

Garden
To the rear is a generous garden with several distinct areas. A flagged patio with decorative detailing adjoins raised beds edged with cobble setts, beyond which is a generous lawned area. A further patio is positioned towards the rear of the garden, together with an additional raised bed and space for a garden shed. The garden is enclosed to all three sides by timber fencing, with gated side access along the left-hand side of the property.

Whilst the garden would benefit from some further care and attention, it offers excellent potential to create an attractive outdoor space for entertaining, dining and family use.
