WELCOME TO 203 BIRTLES ROAD, MACCLESFIELD
A rare opportunity to acquire a detached bungalow in one of Macclesfield's most desirable semi-rural locations, enjoying mature south westerly facing gardens, two garages and exciting scope for further enhancement.
Beautifully positioned on the quieter grass verged section of Birtles Road, with fields opposite, this deceptively spacious home offers flexible accommodation of up to three double bedrooms and presents an excellent opportunity for buyers looking to personalise a property in an exceptional setting.
The property has been newly decorated internally in a tasteful neutral palette and benefits from largely re-plastered walls, electrical rewiring with certification completed in May 2026, and a new consumer unit. Gas is connected to the property and has currently been safely capped whilst vacant. The majority of the windows are double glazed and the property is offered for sale with no onward vendor chain, making it ideal for those looking for a straightforward move.
The accommodation is both versatile and well balanced. A welcoming covered porch leads into the spacious entrance hall, giving access to a charming bay fronted living room which could equally serve as a third double bedroom if desired. The separate dining room enjoys views over the rear garden and benefits from a useful built-in pantry, whilst the kitchen offers direct access outside and integral access into one of the garages. Completing the accommodation are two generous double bedrooms and a family bathroom with fitted storage cupboards and heated towel rail.
One of the property's most exciting features is the potential it offers for future improvement. The integral garage provides access via fitted timber steps to a sizeable attic room with access to the eaves, presenting an obvious opportunity for additional storage or, subject to any necessary consents, further accommodation. Buyers may wish to explore the potential for a dormer conversion or other alterations to maximise the space available. There is also scope to enhance elements of the roof together with the fascias, soffits and guttering should purchasers wish to continue the property's programme of improvement.
Externally, the mature gardens are a particular delight. The southerly facing rear garden enjoys an excellent degree of privacy and benefits from sunlight throughout the day, whilst mature planting creates a peaceful and established setting. To the front, there are further lawned gardens together with two separate gated driveways, each leading to its own garage - a feature seldom found in bungalow properties.
Location is another undeniable highlight. Situated in a stunning semi-rural setting surrounded by beautiful countryside, the property remains exceptionally convenient for local amenities. Macclesfield's mainline train station is approximately 2.2 miles away on foot, whilst the highly regarded villages of Prestbury and Alderley Edge are approximately 2.4 and 4 miles away respectively, offering an excellent choice of independent shops, restaurants and leisure facilities.
This represents a wonderful opportunity to acquire a detached bungalow with flexible accommodation, tremendous potential and an enviable location. Whether you're seeking single storey living, additional space for hobbies or future development opportunities, this delightful home offers exciting possibilities for years to come.
