The list price of £400,000 seems somewhat high considering the property’s condition and the need for comprehensive renovation. While the land and additional garages offer potential for redevelopment, this is not factored into the current price. Comparable nearby properties, although lacking precise square footage details, are listed at significantly lower prices. The price might be justified if the redevelopment potential is substantial, but this requires verification and planning permissions.

The property is in significant need of renovation. The photos reveal extensive damage and disrepair throughout the interior, including significant wall damage, flooring issues, and a general lack of maintenance. The exterior also shows signs of age and neglect. While the structure seems to be sound, substantial investment will be required for modernisation and repairs.

The property benefits from a central Macclesfield location, relatively close to schools (Parkroyal Community School, The Fermain Academy, and The Macclesfield Academy are all within a kilometre), and Macclesfield train station (1.07km). This makes it convenient for commuting and access to amenities. However, the immediate surroundings shown in the photos appear somewhat industrial and less aesthetically pleasing than other areas of Macclesfield. The lack of immediate green space detracts slightly from the score.

The property includes a plot of land, though its size isn’t specified, and a substantial number of garages and workshops which could provide additional value or development potential. While the immediate garden space is overgrown and unkempt, the overall land area provides a degree of added value. However, the condition of the land and outbuildings needs to be factored in. The land’s ultimate value is highly dependent on planning permissions and redevelopment opportunities.
