3 bed detached house for sale

Friars Close, Macclesfield SK10

Only 2 miles from Macclesfield and tucked away in the peaceful cul-de-sac of Friars Close, in the highly sought-after village of Rainow, very close to the border of the Peak District national park. This extended three-bedroom linked detached home enjoys a wonderful setting surrounded by beautiful countryside and rolling hillside views. Offering the perfect balance of village charm and practical family living, this well-maintained home provides spacious and versatile accommodation throughout.

The present owner has installed a log burning fire, which allied to the solar panels has made the property relatively economic by way of fuel consumption. The solar panels are connected to the "feed in tariff scheme" and over the last two years have produced an income averaging £2,000 p.a. The use of the log burner has created a position whereby the current gas and electric charge is £110 pcm (£1320 p.a.), approx half the level of neighbouring properties.

The ground floor opens with an entrance porch leading into a welcoming hallway. The generous lounge and dining area create an excellent space for everyday living and entertaining, flowing through to a superb sun room. Flooded with natural light from Velux windows and French doors opening onto the garden, this inviting space is made even cosier by a wood-burning stove, perfect for relaxing on winter evenings.

The property also benefits from a well-appointed breakfast kitchen, a convenient ground floor shower room, an integral garage and an additional veranda, offering excellent storage space or potential for a home gym.

Upstairs, there are three well-proportioned bedrooms and a stylish modern family bathroom.

Outside

Outside, a driveway and mature planting create an attractive approach to the property. To the rear, the landscaped garden covers some 128 sq. M and provides a private and tranquil retreat, mainly laid to lawn with established borders and enjoying a secluded position that is not overlooked. There is a sycamore tree, an apple tree and small pond with resident frogs.

Further benefits include double glazing throughout, a modern combination boiler and solar panels, helping to enhance the home's energy efficiency.

Combining spacious accommodation, a peaceful village location and easy access to some of Cheshire's most beautiful countryside, this is a fantastic opportunity to enjoy a more relaxed pace of life without compromising on convenience.
