Minor Avenue is a small and quiet cul-de-sac situated directly on the border of Lyme Green and the sought-after village of Sutton.

The location is perfect for those keen on outdoor pursuits, with this area directly neighbouring the wonderful Macclesfield canal and its leafy and tranquil towpath walks - ideal for walking, regular dog exercising, cycling and of course, jogging. The canal provides direct access to numerous countryside routes and public walkways, linking Bosley locks, Congleton and farther to the south, and Sutton, Kerridge, Bollington and distant Marple to the north.
Walking the towpath to the north and after passing the Hurdsfield area of Macclesfield, the canal runs parallel to the fabulous Middlewood Way; an 11 mile former railway line connecting Macclesfield to Marple. This is a peaceful, traffic-free, walking, cycling and bridlepath route. The Middlewood Way and the canal provide the option of a varied scenery circular route.

The pretty village of Sutton and its popular Sutton Hall eatery, can be easily reached by foot, as can the nearby Lyme Green Retail Park, which provides a diverse range of larger sized stores and amenities.

The canal passes directly to the rear of the cul-de-sac head of Minor Avenue, where this particular property is positioned. The stunning landscaped rear garden tiers from its elevated stance, to directly access the bank of the canal. A possibility potentially exists for a sizable mooring, large enough to moor a narrowboat, directly to the rear of this property. There exists a perfect cutting for a boat to be moored, which allows the full width of the canal to be maintained. However, there is currently no agreement in place with the Canal and River Trust to allow the mooring of a boat, therefore, we strongly advise any interest in a boat mooring should be directed to the Canal and River Trust before any interest or commitment be made.

An elevated vantage point over the stunning open countryside backdrop has been created with the addition of a sunny rooftop terrace. This is a fabulous space to simply relax and unwind or entertain family and friends with the most breathtaking of views to the horizon.

For children, Lyme Green Play Area is located directly behind Minor Avenue. This is a community play area in an open countryside environment. For Adults and children of all ages, Superbowl UK offers toddlers and younger children a Crazy Club soft play area, whilst older children and adults can enjoy indoor bowling, an adrenaline-packed laser adventure, as well as a sega family-themed machine arcade. Superbowl UK can be accessed by foot in around five minutes from Minor Avenue.

So, with the immediate location briefly highlighted, we now move to the details of this particular property. The extended family accommodation comprises of an entrance hallway, which conveniently, as well as practically, separates the main ground floor accommodation from the outdoor elements in the colder months of the year. The hallway also offers the space to hang coats and store shoes before entering the main living space.

From the hallway, the lounge is of an open-plan design, joining the once separate dining room to create a flowing reception room that can be made easily adaptable. This hub of the home living space enjoys dual aspects, allowing lots of natural light to flow, as well as open canal and countryside views to be enjoyed from the rear elevation.

Adjacent to the aforementioned reception area, the kitchen is fitted with a range of cabinets which extend into the additional utility room, informal dining area and downstairs WC extension. This space now conveniently connects to the integral garage. The kitchen benefits elevated views over the tiered garden, canal and countryside backdrop. Doors to the front and rear of the utility area, open to both the rear garden and also the driveway to the front. With the addition of the downstairs WC, both family and guests can utilise this facility without the need to use the first floor bathroom.
The extension also offers the perfect opportunity to create a bootroom, as well as an ideal space for dogs to dry following muddy walks!

The staircase from the hallway rises to the first floor landing. Here, a door located to the side elevation, opens to reveal an amazing spacious roof terrace. The terrace provides privileged elevated views over the lower-lying garden, Macclesfield canal and open countryside stretching as far as the Peak District and Macclesfield Forrest.

Back to the landing, the rear-facing master bedroom benefits similar views to the roof terrace - what a fabulous view to wake up to on a lazy weekend morning! The loft hatch is situated on the landing and is fully boarded, providing a great storage facility.

Two further bedrooms feature to the front of the property, comprising a second double-sized room, along with a third single-sized bedroom. A family bathroom serves the three bedrooms perfectly, featuring a bath and shower facility.

The rear garden is accessed via the rear elevation of the open-plan dining area, utility room and garage. The garden area is fully landscaped and descends over two tiers. The top tier extends from the rear elevation and is mainly lawn-laid with a flagged patio, offering fabulous canal and open countryside views far into the distance. This an area to relax, al fresco dine and entertain - a perfect summer garden for family barbeques, without doubt.
A small flight of steps descend to the lower tier, which gently falls to an extended jetty located directly on the banks of the canal. For the green fingered, this area is stocked with an abundance of plants, bushes, shrubs and trees. This is without doubt a dream garden, due to the diversity of landscaping opportunity.
As previously mentioned; historically, a jetty and private mooring cut have been developed. This provides the perfect private launch or possible mooring of a boat. However, there are currently no official mooring rights and therefore, we strongly advise interested parties who may wish to moor a watercraft either temporarily or permanently, make such enquiries of possibility with the appropriate authorities, such as the Canal and River Trust.

To the front of the property there is driveway parking for two cars. An integral garage provides great storage or the potential, with all necessary consents and permissions required, to convert into further accommodation, if so desired.

This is a very special property due to its unique and highly-desirable location. With a most wonderful outlook and such a highly-convenient location, this is an opportunity that rarely comes available. We would therefore strongly recommend interested parties to arrange a viewing appointment at their earliest convenience by contacting the sole selling estate agent, Simeon Rains in association with The Good Estate Agent Macclesfield. Our offices are located at 52 Waters Green, Macclesfield SK11 6JT.
