3 bedroom property for sale in Macclesfield

Exuding charm and character throughout within a picturesque traditional structure, this is a delightful detached stone farmhouse (believed to be formerly Grimshaw Farm) that has all features that would be hoped for in a home of this ilk. Dating back to the 17th Century, and now enjoying Grade II listed status due to its appealing design and heritage value to Bollington, it provides a homely and enviable residence.

Heavily beamed ceilings, exposed stonework, rustic fireplaces and an intriguing staircase and landing are original features that have been further enhanced and complemented with more modern fittings and d?cor in a most attractive manner. All principal rooms are of good size with three reception rooms on the ground floor and three bedrooms at first floor level.

The house stands within attractive cottage style gardens including a grand Magnolia tree offering a backdrop of colour in springtime and cool shade in summer months. Various seating areas offer different perspectives through the day. There is off road parking to the front of the house.

In addition to the charm of its rural origins, the house now enjoys the convenience of being close to may amenities available in Bollington and also for access to the beautiful countryside that surrounds. Shops for everyday needs, pubs and restaurants, and bus stops with services into Macclesfield and Stockport are all within walking distance.
