4 bed semi-detached house for sale

Gawsworth Road, Macclesfield SK11

There's a warmth and familiarity about a traditional 1930s home that's difficult to recreate, and 1 Gawsworth Road has plenty of both. With its square bay windows, pine floorboards, a decorative fireplace and beautifully proportioned rooms, this extended four-bedroom semi-detached house has retained much of what makes homes of this era so appealing. Add to that a generous private garden, two separate reception rooms and a spacious dining kitchen, and you have a home with plenty of room for a family to grow, spread out and make it their own.

Standing back from Gawsworth Road, behind established hedgerows and a lawned front garden, the house has an attractive traditional frontage with a driveway providing off-road parking and access to the integral garage. Inside, a long and welcoming entrance hall sets the scene, with its picture rails, traditional staircase and soft, understated decoration. There's a sense of space from the moment you enter, with the accommodation flowing naturally from the hallway.

The sitting room is a particularly inviting space, with pine floorboards, a decorative cast-iron fireplace and a large square bay window overlooking the front garden. It's a comfortable room with lovely proportions, where the original features and natural light give it a warm, homely atmosphere. Adjacent, the second reception room offers a different atmosphere, with its own pine floorboards and square bay French doors opening onto the garden. Currently arranged as an informal sitting room, its generous proportions would also make it an excellent dining or play room, giving you flexibility in how you choose to use the two reception spaces.

The extended dining kitchen sits at the rear of the house and brings a lovely sense of openness to the ground floor. Traditional Shaker-style cabinetry is paired with warm wood-effect worktops, whilst a central breakfast bar provides somewhere to sit with a morning coffee or catch up whilst dinner is being prepared. Three Velux roof windows allow daylight to filter down into the room, and there's plenty of space for a family dining table beside the windows overlooking the garden. It's a room that feels relaxed and welcoming, with enough space for everyone to gather without feeling crowded.

There's also a separate downstairs WC, useful understairs storage and internal access to the integral garage, providing additional storage and flexibility.

Upstairs, the four bedrooms are arranged around a central landing, continuing the generous proportions found downstairs. The main bedroom is especially spacious, with room for larger bedroom furniture and its own beautifully finished en-suite shower room. The traditional styling works particularly well here, with grey metro tiling, a large walk-in shower, vanity wash basin and a period-style heated towel radiator.

The second and third bedrooms are both comfortable doubles, with the third also benefiting from built-in wardrobes and storage. The fourth bedroom is currently arranged as a home office, although it could equally be used as a nursery or younger child's bedroom. The separate family bathroom is fitted with a modern white suite, including a panelled bath with shower attachment.

Outside, the garden has the space and privacy that can be difficult to find. An Indian stone flagged patio sits immediately behind the house, reached through the French doors of the rear reception room or from the kitchen. Beyond this, a broad expanse of lawn stretches towards the established boundaries, with mature hedging, shrubs and planting giving the garden an attractive, settled feel. There's room for children to play, space for a garden table and chairs, and plenty of opportunity for anyone who enjoys spending time outdoors.

The location is equally well suited to families. Gawsworth Road sits within the established Broken Cross area of Macclesfield, with local shops, amenities and several primary schools within easy reach. Fallibroome Academy is also conveniently placed, whilst Macclesfield town centre offers a wider selection of independent shops, cafés and restaurants, together with its mainline railway station providing regular connections to Manchester and London.

What makes 1 Gawsworth Road particularly appealing is how comfortably the old and new sit alongside one another. The original features give the rooms their character, whilst the extension, generous proportions and adaptable layout provide the space needed for a busy household. It's an inviting, homely place, with room for everyone to be together and enough space to enjoy a little time apart. A house that feels ready for its next family and everything that comes with it.
