Eccles Road, Chapel-En-Le-Frith, SK23

Nestled in the captivating semi-rural setting of Chapel-en-le-Frith, this 4-bedroom detached freehold house, offered chain-free, presents an exceptional opportunity for those seeking a harmonious blend of countryside charm and modern convenience. With many character features, this home boasts four spacious bedrooms, a well-appointed family bathroom, and two WC's, along with two elegant reception rooms, and an office/study upstairs suitable for homeworking or creative pursuits. The utility room is well appointed to handle larger than average laundry requirements, leading through to the kitchen - the heart of the house.

Outside, there are several well-established fruit trees (fig, apple, pear, elderberry) and many flowering shrubs.
