Full details for 3 Bedroom Town House For Sale in Macclesfield

Situated just 2 minutes walk of the town centre, Lord Street enjoys an eclectic mixture of architectural styles - Elegant Georgian & Regency homes rub shoulders with later, and less flamboyant Victorian workers homes.

Number 23 Lord Street, dates from the mid-Victorian era and served as one of Macclesfield‘s historic, and somewhat iconic, silk weaving cottages. The instantly recognisable three-storey terraced properties were originally utilised as an early work-from-home setup. The ground and first floors were occupied as living accommodation for the silk weavers, whilst the top floor was separated by a trap door which was pulled down and secured after a long day‘s work in the open weaving rooms, which often ran through the entire row of cottages.

Today, number 23 bares very little resemblance to its historic past. The property has been renovated to a very high standard and although some original features remain, the style is very much contemporary. There is absolutely no doubt that this renovation has been a labour of love rather than just a straightforward renovation. The central heating system has replicated former period cast iron radiators at great expense, which perfectly compliment and balance the modern contemporary theme, whilst featuring throughout the entire accommodation. For those with busy lifestyles and wishing for no more to do than unpack and live, this is without doubt the opportunity you have been searching for; for not only is this a home to move straight into, it is simply a stunning environment to enjoy too.

The location as very briefly touched upon, could be no more convenient for the easiest access to the town centre and railway station. The vibrant and increasingly popular Park Green area of the town, with its pavement caf© society and diverse range of eateries, lies literally on the doorstep of this fabulous home.

Entering the property via the handsome period front door, one is immediately struck by the amazing grandeur of the presentation. The living space is of a vast open-plan design, ideal for both everyday living and dining, but of course perfect for those keen on entertaining family and friends. The presentation is simply inspiring, with the lounge area seamlessly merging into the original dining room - to amazing effect, both chimney breasts remain in situ, featuring a glorious cast iron woodburner to the first, and an incredible original cast iron range cooker taking pride of place in the farthest. A stunning herringbone design of oak flooring flows seamlessly through the living space, whilst the ceilings are smoothly finished and feature a lovely plaster decorative coving which sympathetically replicates the original period charm.

The main living space opens to a beautifully renovated kitchen, which boasts a classic range of Dove Grey shaker-style cabinets, complemented by oak block-effect worktops and fabulous slate flooring.

An open-plan staircase leads from the dining area to the first floor gallery-style landing, where to the front, a full-width double-sized bedroom provides greater bedroom space than the majority of comparable properties & features an original chimney breast with a lovely original cast iron open grate fireplace. Originally a second double bedroom, the luxuriously re-styled bathroom is a fabulous place to pamper oneself. The sheer size of the room available, has enabled space to include a bath, as well as a separate shower cubicle. A mixture of both period and contemporary features, such as an original cast iron open-grate fireplace and antique pine airing cupboard, share the space with the latest bathroom furniture, as well as modern stone, and contrasting reproduction period tiling.

A second staircase rises to the second floor and former weavers room. Here, two naturally light and beautifully presented double bedrooms, offer the flexibility to utilise as bedrooms, or for those requiring home office space, a perfect spacious working environment that can also double as an occasional third bedroom for guest stays.

Accessed from the kitchen; a small gated private flagged area opens to a lovely communal cottage-style courtyard garden. A residents pathway leads to a secure gate which provides rear access from Lord Street; ideal for bringing items through to the rear and also for wheelie bins to be emptied and stored.

This is a very rare opportunity to secure a true gem - great space, a fabulous central location, as well as amazing presentation from top to toe.
