Situated equidistant of the town centre and the countryside surrounding Sutton and Langley, this period semi detached cottage is not all it appears from first glance. The rather modest fa ade certainly does not reflect the sheer size of accommodation within.

The location is perfect for those searching for a home on the fringe of the town centre, and yet within easy and pleasant walking distance to some of the stunning open countryside that the surrounding area has to offer. The tranquil towpaths of the Macclesfield canal are easily accessible, meandering through the town southwards towards Bosley and Congleton, and passing the highly popular Sutton Hall venue and eatery on the way. Northwards, the canal flows through the villages of Kerridge and Bollington, in the direction of Adlington, Poynton and Marple. This route enables walkers to follow the canal one way, whilst returning along the adjacent former railway line of the now, Middlewood Way. Macclesfield Forest and the open landscape of the Peak District National Park, can be reached on foot in around 30 minutes from the front door of this lovely cottage home.

Upon entering the accommodation via an enclosed entrance vestibule and cloaks area, one can only marvel at the expanse of open plan living space which has been created via the addition of a full width rear extension. The cosy cottage living room located towards the front of the property, is separated from the entrance vestibule and seamlessly extends to create a stunning living area and expansive, naturally bright, island kitchen and dining space. The entire ground floor offers fabulous flexibility of use. The extension is served by an array of windows, skylights and glazed doors, which allow natural light to flow throughout the open plan designed accommodation.

The original cottage living room is utilised as it was intended, however, the design is of contemporary style meets classic period style. Modern clean lines are fused in an eclectic mix of sympathetically retained features, such as a stunning cast iron open fireplace ideal for cosy crackling fires during the colder months of the year. Natural oak plank flooring runs seamlessly through the living areas and into the island kitchen here it contrasts to great effect with natural stone flooring to the main kitchen area. The focal point of the kitchen is the central island; a multi functional hub that incorporates stool seating for informal eating, as well as functioning as a work station and central preparation counter. Complementary contemporary style floor and wall cabinets surround the island, with a full itinerary of integrated appliances included.

Just off the kitchen area, a very handy separate laundry and boot room has been created; meaning the kitchen is free of laundry white goods, allowing a greater use of cabinets for kitchen items and storage. To one side of the kitchen, there is plenty of space to create a more formal dining area perfect for entertaining family and friends.

From the entrance vestibule, a staircase rises to the first floor landing. Here, two good bedrooms are served by a spacious and luxuriously appointed bath and shower room.

The accommodation is presented in ready to move straight in condition, ideal for those wishing to not take on any more than simply adding their own stamp and interior style.

Accessed from the kitchen via French doors, as well as a side door; the rear walled garden is a delight. Fully enclosed and offering good privacy, the garden is mature and features a slightly elevated lawn complete with a pretty pond, and is bordered to the immediate rear by a lovely dwarf Peak drystone wall. The garden extends to the side, and enjoys an array of mature trees, bushes and shrubs.

This is without doubt a rare opportunity to acquire a most unusual and deceptively spacious cottage, situated in a popular location, and offered for sale with the benefit of no ongoing chain.
