Old Hall Street is situated in a quiet tucked-away location just off Beech Lane, and within five easy minutes walking distance of Macclesfield town centre.

The street remains one of the few original Victorian-era cobbled roads within the town centre and is lined with pretty period cottages of the era.

The lovely Bollin Valley Way, a 21-mile walking route that follows the River Bollin towards Manchester and the Ship Canal, almost neighbours this location; ideal for outdoor lovers and those with dogs to regularly exercise. The leafy and tranquil Middlewood Way, a former 11-mile railway line that linked Macclesfield station to Marple, can also be accessed within minutes. This scenic walkway, cycling route and bridlepath passes Bollington, Adlington and Poynton before reaching Marple itself. The Macclesfield Canal with its peaceful towpaths runs almost parallel the entire distance, allowing two distinctly contrasting routes and scenery to be accessed outward and by return.

Number 11 Old Hall Street, is an individual cottage-style home rather than a traditional red brick terraced house that line the streets typically within the town centre. The cottages along Old Hall Street have their own individuality and character, making this a popular choice with buyers and a fair rarity to come to market.

From the historic York stone pavements that line the gently sloping cobbled street, a small flight of stone steps rise to the front door. On entering the property, a cosy vestibule separates the outdoor elements from the ground floor living space. The front-facing lounge is a cosy living space, perfect during the colder months of the year for snug days and evenings in a room easy to keep toasty and warm.

Neighbouring the lounge, a cottage-style kitchen provides space for a dining table and offers elevated views over rooftops to the distant Peak hills.

From the dining area, a door reveals a staircase which descends to the basement. This is a truly fabulous space, offering accommodation that stretches the full length and width of the ground floor above, as well as benefiting from natural light. Great head height allows this centrally heated space to be utilised with absolute flexibility; a home office and gaming room, a spare bedroom and office, a business or hobby space, or perhaps a very spacious gym - this is a rather unique, unexpected and very welcome addition to the accommodation. We are informed by the current vendor that there is full building control sign-off documentation supporting the conversion a few years ago.

Returning to the entrance vestibule, a staircase rises to the first floor landing. The landing separates the two bedrooms and bathroom. The master bedroom is of a double size and features a range of built-in and fitted furniture - wardrobes, a storage cupboard, chest of drawers, dressing table and bedside cabinets. No shortage of storage here! The second bedroom is currently utilised as a child's bedroom and enjoys elevated views to the rear.

The bathroom features a bath with a thermostatically controlled shower over the bath - perfect for those who prefer the best of both a shower and bath.

The entire accommodation is served by a quality branded Worcester gas combination boiler. The boiler efficiently serves both the hot water supply and central heating. For improved energy performance, easier maintenance, and acoustic insulation, all the windows and doors are PVC framed with sealed double glazed panels.

Outside, there is a very cute and well-maintained communal cottage garden. The garden enjoys a southerly orientation, offering this property and the three neighbouring properties, a lovely sunny community garden space.

Without doubt, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a lovely character property that offers great space and a hard-to-beat location. Viewing appointments are highly recommended to fully appreciate all on offer.
