Located in a highly popular residential location on the cusp of Macclesfield's vibrant town centre, number 6 Brock Street offers highly deceptive accommodation over three-storeys, plus a useful attic space.

Brock Street lies just a five minute walk away from Macclesfield's bustling town centre.
The mainline railway station can be reached by foot, five minutes further distant and provides a direct service to Manchester Piccadilly (23 minutes) and London Euston (1.45 hours).

A Sainsburys Superstore is located within a stones-throw, and a choice of both primary and secondary schools are all within easy walking distance.
Although unrestricted parking is available outside the front door, the location is so central to almost all the amenities the town has to offer, that a car is possibly of no requirement.

For those keen on exercise or with four-legged friends, both the Bollin Valley Way - a 21 mile countryside and riverside route connecting Macclesfield to Prestbury, and then all the way to Manchester; and the wonderful 11 mile Middlewood Way - a former railway line connecting Macclesfield railway station to Bollington and eventually Marple; are both located within a few minutes walking distance of this property.
Running almost parallel to The Middlewood Way, the tranquillity of the Macclesfield Canal can combine to make a peaceful and contrasting walk of woodland and water.
Lying just under five minutes walking distance from the front door, Macclesfield's second-largest public park; West park [opened in 1854], boasts 15 acres of recreational gardens, children's playing areas, and more.

So, with a brief overview of the surrounding area covered, we can move onto a summary of number 6 Brock Street.

Kerbside, one could be forgiven for assuming the property appears an attractive, but modest, cottage. However, first impressions can be deceiving, as they say, for the land-line falls sharply from the front elevation of Brock Street, adding a full length floor of further accommodation below.

Upon entering the property via the front door facing Brock Street, a long reception hallway retains much of its grand Victoriana splendour - stripped and varnished original floorboards, decorative dado rails, period anaglypta and feature plaster & wood mouldings.
The reception hallway, practically, separates the accommodation from the exterior, unlike many similar-era properties, where the front door opens straight into a reception room.

The formal lounge lies to the front of the property. This is a very cosy and peaceful reception room, full of period character and charm.

The original neighbouring dining room, has more recently been transformed into a double-sized bedroom, complete with fitted bedroom storage and furniture. For those requiring a spacious home working space, this room could also be reinstated to a dedicated office or could combine as a guest bedroom and workspace.

Adjacent to the current bedroom/former dining room, a spacious bathroom and WC independently serves this floor.

A staircase from the hallway descends to the lower ground floor where a fabulous open-plan farmhouse-style kitchen, family sitting room & snug, as well as a laundry and bootroom, serve as an informal living space that will naturally become the hub of daily life.
This is a very relaxing area that not only offers great living space, but also offers the perfect environment to cook and entertain.

Both the kitchen and sitting room/snug share lovely cottage features, such as ceiling beams, wooden and quarry tiled floors and a magnificent period-style feature fireplace.

The extended laundry and bootroom provide a separate space from the kitchen to store washing appliances and complete washing and drying duties, as well as storing shoes, boots and coats, etc.

The lower ground floor connects to a very low maintenance private cottage style courtyard garden, ideal for those who wish to enjoy relaxing more than gardening during quality down-time periods.

Back to the hallway; a staircase rises to the top floor. Here, two double-sized bedrooms and a contemporary-style shower room and WC will be found.
This third-storey provides great sleeping space that is served by its own bathing and WC facility.
The original attic incorporates a pull-down loft ladder from the ceiling hatch. The attic space has been transformed into a naturally light [Velux double glazed window light installed], carpeted and plaster-walled, storage space; which has been utilised from time-to-time as an occassional stopover room for family and friends.

Presented throughout impeccably and decorated to a very high standard; this is a home for those wishing to invest little more than their own personal touches.
The presentation is sympathetic to the age and character the property deserves, careful to retain so much of the original charm and cottage-like feel - this is about as good as it gets, certainly if character is an important consideration when searching for the ideal home.

The location, as previously mentioned, is also spot-on for convenience, with not only the town centre and railway station in easy reach, but also the ability to access fabulous nature and walking routes almost right on the doorstep.

Practically and efficiently, the entire property is warmed by a gas central heating system, whilst the windows and doors are all low-maintenance, insulated PVC double glazed sealed units.

Viewing appointments are highly advised in order to fully appreciate all on offer. In the first instance, please contact Simeon Rains in association with The Good Estate Agent Macclesfield. Our offices are located directly opposite the railway station at 52 Waters Green, SK11 6JT.
