Congleton Road, Nether Alderley, Macclesfield, SK10

Church Lodge is a Grade II listed Gothic-style former gatehouse dating from 1817, with an irregular arrangement of one-, two- and three-storey sections, sandstone details and distinctive pagoda-form lead roofs. The three-bedroom accommodation includes an entrance hall, living room, kitchen, study, bathroom and bedrooms arranged across the upper floors. A later extension provides two additional rooms, a WC and a single garage. The house is described as requiring full modernisation and improvement. It stands within grounds of approximately 0.42 acres and has off-road parking for four cars. The listing notes potential for extension, subject to the necessary consents. As a listed building, any proposed work would need to take account of its status and the relevant approvals. The property is freehold and subject to an estate charge of £0.25 per square foot per annum. A new electricity supply is required; the seller says they will arrange installation, with a minimum anticipated period of 12 weeks between exchange and completion, or buyers may arrange this directly with Electricity North West. Offers are invited by informal tender, with best bids requested in writing by noon on Friday 4 December 2026.
