Oak Lane, Kerridge, SK10 5BD

Tucked away in the storybook Cheshire village of Kerridge, this larger-than-average semi-detached stone cottage embodies everything that is special about an English country home.

With its timeless stone exterior, traditional detailing, and gentle balance of modern comfort, it is a house that makes you feel at ease the moment you cross the threshold—a place that truly welcomes you in.

The dining hall greets you with a graceful oak staircase and a striking stone fireplace, where a wood-burning stove glows warmly against the stone flagged floor.

It is a room with a natural sense of occasion—perfect for gathering around the table or simply pausing to enjoy the comfort of its traditional features.

At the rear, the sitting room offers a more intimate atmosphere. Here, softer light and gentle shadows create a space that feels cocooned and inviting.

A stone fireplace with a wood-burning stove brings warmth, while bespoke shelving adds thoughtful detail.

Underfoot, a beautifully laid herringbone oak-effect LVT floor brings both texture and warmth, completing a room that is perfectly suited to evenings by lamplight or quiet conversation.

Double doors open onto the garden, providing a gentle connection to the outdoors.

The kitchen is both timeless and beautiful, fitted with shaker-style cabinetry, a central island, and the classic touch of a stable door opening to the garden.

There is also space for an Aga, should you wish to complete the picture of country living. A cloakroom and integral garage with utility area add convenience to daily life.

Upstairs, three double bedrooms provide comfort and space.

The main bedroom enjoys its own en-suite shower room and fitted wardrobes, the second bedroom also benefits from fitted wardrobes while the family bathroom has been styled with traditional shiplap panelling and a roll-top bath—an inviting spot to unwind at the end of the day.

In addition you will also find a useful space that is currently being used as an office which could also provide additional storage or become additional wardrobe space.

VELUX windows draw soft natural light into the upper floor, and the landing offers a useful airing cupboard with radiator and shelving.

Externally, the property is set behind a gated gravel driveway, offering both privacy and practicality. At the rear, the gardens have been beautifully landscaped.

Once a steep and overgrown plot, the current owners have reimagined the space with care and detail.

Old narrow pathways have been replaced with gently curved steps of Indian stone, their shallow rise and deep tread making the garden accessible while also adding elegance.

These steps meander through the terraces, leading to several seating areas that circle around a central pond—a tranquil focal point alive with reflections and the movement of nature.

At the top of the garden, a decked terrace captures sweeping views over Kerridge’s stone rooftops and the rolling countryside beyond.

For those who enjoy homegrown produce, a dedicated vegetable plot with raised beds completes the garden, blending beauty with usefulness.

Recent new windows and doors ensure modern efficiency, subtly blending into the home’s timeless aesthetic.

Though the setting is delightfully semi-rural, Macclesfield’s town centre and mainline rail station are a short car journey away, placing Manchester and London within easy reach.

The property also offers direct access to local pubs, walking routes, with the Gritstone Trail and countless countryside paths waiting to be explored just beyond the doorstep—making this an ideal home for those who cherish the outdoors as much as the comfort within.

This is more than just a house—it is a place of warmth, character, and enduring beauty.
