Description

Don't let the central location fool you this is one of Macclesfield's best kept secrets. Nestled behind private gates and approached via a picturesque cobbled lane, this unique former stable offers an exceptional blend of character, privacy and convenience. Tucked away from the hustle and bustle, yet just a short stroll from shops, cafés and everyday amenities, it's a home that truly gives you the best of both worlds. Stepping through the gates, you're greeted by an attractive communal courtyard that immediately sets the scene. With allocated parking, visitor spaces and a friendly, well-maintained environment, it's easy to see why opportunities within this exclusive development are so rarely available. Originally forming part of a historic stable block serving the neighbouring Grade II Listed residence on Jordangate, this fascinating home has been thoughtfully converted whilst retaining many of its original features. The impressive double stable doors now welcome you into the lounge, while a traditional stable style entrance and striking arched window provide a nod to the building's equestrian past.
Inside, the accommodation is full of warmth and personality. The spacious lounge centres around a charming log burning stove, creating the perfect spot to relax and unwind. Flowing effortlessly into the dining kitchen, the layout is wonderfully sociable ideal for entertaining friends, hosting family gatherings or simply enjoying everyday life. Practicality has not been overlooked, with a separate utility room providing additional storage and appliance space, complemented by a convenient ground-floor WC. Upstairs, the character continues in abundance. Stunning vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and elevated proportions give both bedrooms a wonderful sense of space and individuality. The principal bedroom enjoys the luxury of an en-suite shower room, whilst a separate family bathroom serves the second bedroom and visiting guests. Outside, whilst there is no private garden, the courtyard setting offers the perfect place for a small bistro table and chairs ideal for enjoying a morning coffee or evening glass of wine in this peaceful setting. Offered for sale with no onward chain and lovingly owned since its original conversion, this is far more than just a house,it's a lifestyle opportunity. Whether you're looking to downsize without compromise, secure a lock-up-and-leave property, or simply own a home with genuine character and a story to tell, The Stables is one that simply must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
Properties as unique as this seldom come to market don't miss your chance to make it yours.
