The accommodation is versatile, featuring four bedrooms and an annex that offers additional living space or rental income possibilities as a holiday let. The ground floor comprises an enclosed porch leading into a spacious lounge with charming exposed beams and a traditional tiled fireplace.

The breakfast kitchen is equipped with oak units and practical amenities, including plumbing for appliances and a gas cooker point. There’s also a convenient WC on this level. The annex features its own entrance, which allows for privacy while comprising its own bedroom/sitting room, dining kitchen, and bathroom—ideal for guests or generating extra income. On the first floor, natural light floods through the landing area, leading to three well-proportioned double bedrooms, each with beautiful countryside views. Two bathrooms are available on this level, one being an en-suite connected to the main bedroom. Outside, the grounds offer ample space with well-maintained lawns, shrub borders, and even a small paddock at the rear which includes a natural pond. A deep driveway provides access to ample hardstanding for vehicles alongside a carport showcasing more exposed beams. Despite requiring some modernisation throughout, this farmhouse's original character remains intact, making it an attractive project for anyone looking to restore it to its former glory or enhance it further. The nearby town of Macclesfield offers various local amenities including shopping and educational facilities while providing easy access to the national motorway network and major transport hubs within half an hour’s drive.
