“A home with soul: Rich in period detail, with wonderful proportions and a setting that feels private and peaceful; just a short walk from the heart of Marple.”
As pretty as it is spacious; this glorious Edwardian semi has the classic kerb appeal and is packed with character and period features whilst boasting some key modern touches.
A warm welcome awaits - from the two car driveway, steps lead up to a welcoming frontage – check out the stained glass detailing on the front door and admire the parquet flooring and wood panelling to the stair case in the entrance hall. The house retains a host of the period features we all still love today: Exposed floorboards, ornate fireplaces, and large light filled bay windows to name but a few.
To the front, a cosy yet airy living room is the first of three reception areas and features an ornate decorative fireplace, exposed floorboards and bay window. At the heart of the home lies a traditional kitchen with hardwood cabinetry and an Aga set within a brick chimney breast, opening to a snug sitting area. Beyond the snug, the garage has been converted to an office space and beyond is the utility room and access to the gardens.
To the rear of the kitchen is a fabulous sun room, a spot favoured by the current owners for an end of day chill - it's full of light from the glazed roof, tranquil and perfect for enjoying the views of the garden whatever the season.
To the first floor are four bedrooms. The master bedroom is situated to the front with a bay window, feature fireplace, exposed floorboards, and is open to a dressing room with floor to ceiling fitted wardrobes. The second bedroom enjoys a rear outlook with a charming period fireplace and garden views, while the third is dual-aspect with garden views and equally as generous in size. The fourth bedroom to the front is currently in use as a study. The family bathroom was updated just two years ago with a fresh white suite and large walk-in shower.
The garden is a true highlight. South-facing and expansive, it offers sweeping largely flat lawns that stretch right down to the woodland edge — a dream for children, gardeners, and anyone who loves the outdoors.
With family having flown the nest, the sellers are downsizing and ready to hand their beloved home to a new occupier who they trust will love it as much as they have done over the years.
For families seeking space, character, and a lifestyle that balances town and countryside, 128 Hibbert Lane is a very special find.

The Local Area
Marple is one of those ‘best of both worlds’ locations. Close enough to the city and transport links for commuters yet sits on the edge of the Peak District with the countryside on the doorstep.
In recent years, Marple has welcomed numerous independent retailers, cafes, bars and restaurants giving residents superb choice for their leisure time. There’s a monthly Maker’s Market, the Marple Carnival held annually in June and various other events adding to the community feel.
The Marple Community Hub is scheduled to open within the next 12 months and residents will benefit from a five lane swimming pool, library and café, fitness suite, shared community spaces and will house the Marple clinic.
Marple is home to a family run traditional independent cinema, the Regent, and it is one of the last remaining in the UK.
There are two railway stations - Rose Hill and Marple - each with regular services into Manchester Piccadilly in under 30 minutes. Buses run regularly into Stockport and out to Hayfield, Mellor and Glossop and there's a circular service covering Romiley, Marple and Bredbury. Commuting by car has never been more convenient with the A555 linking Hazel Grove to Manchester Airport with the A34, John Lewis at Cheadle and Handforth Dean, home to M&S, Tesco and more, eminently more accessible.
Children can enjoy the many well-equipped local parks including a skate park in the centre of the town, part of the Memorial Park. Many of these parks enjoy fabulous views of the surrounding hills. Etherow Country Park in Compstall plays host to a sailing club, Brabyns Park in Marple is well used for weekend sporting activities and by dog walkers and Lyme Park, owned by the National Trust is just a few miles away. The Roman Lakes leisure complex is popular with walkers, horse riders and anglers and more recently volunteers have sought to preserve the remains of Samuel Oldknow’s historic mill. The Garden House is a charity-run community farm, open to the public with pigs, alpacas, Shetland Ponies and more.
The Middlewood Way is a cycle path, popular with runners and walkers which follows the former Macclesfield, Bollington and Marple Railway line south from Rose Hill to Macclesfield.
The Peak Forest Canal runs for 15 miles between Ashton under Lyne and Whaley Bridge in Derbyshire, passing through Marple through the famed flight of 16 locks, separating the ‘upper’ and ‘lower’ parts of the canal. Follow the canal path and take in the breathtaking views of the nearby Peak District; you are never far away from some outstanding walks.
