The property is located in Macclesfield, Cheshire, a town with a mix of period and modern housing. The area benefits from good local schools such as Broken Cross Primary Academy and Nursery (rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) and several others within a 1.5km radius. Transport links are also reasonably convenient, with Macclesfield train station approximately 4.38km away, offering connections to Avanti West Coast and Northern Trains services.

Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in need of some modernisation. The interior shows dated decor and furnishings, and while structurally sound, it would benefit from updating to improve its overall condition. The kitchen and bathroom, in particular, appear tired and could be improved. The exterior shows a garden, which is a positive feature, although it could also benefit from some landscaping.

The list price of £205,000 is slightly below the average price of £259,500 for the area. However, considering the property’s condition and the need for potential renovations, the price seems relatively reasonable when compared to similar properties on Earlsway, such as number 145 which sold for £188,500 and number 153 which sold for £150,000. The average price per square foot in the area is £311, while this property is listed at approximately £225 per sqft. This suggests that the property might be slightly underpriced considering the average price per sqft in the area, but this is offset by the need for modernisation.

The property has a garden, which is a desirable feature, especially for families. The size of the garden is approximately 1,067 sqft.

Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
