The garden has a large patio and raised lawn and even with a north easterly aspect, the garden sees the sun for the most part of the day.  Enjoying a good degree of privacy, pets and children can play safely as it’s fully enclosed with a gate leading to the front of the house.  Access to the double garage is via a side door from the rear patio or two up and over garage doors at the front and driveway parking for two vehicles.

Marple is one of those ‘best of both worlds’ locations.  Close enough to the city and transport links for commuters yet sits on the edge of the Peak District with the countryside on the doorstep.

Oldridge Crescent is just a short walk away from the centre of Marple and incredibly convenient for the local amenities.  In recent years, Marple has welcomed numerous independent retailers, cafes, bars and restaurants giving residents superb choice for their leisure time.  Marple has recently been awarded funding for a brand new Community Hub which will incorporate the library and leisure centre, currently in planning and envisaged to open 2025/26.  There’s a monthly Maker’s Market, the Marple Carnival held annually in June and various other events adding to the community feel.  Marple is home to a family run traditional cinema, the Regent, one of the last remaining independent cinemas in the UK.  

The catchment schools are Rose Hill Primary or St Mary’s Catholic Primary School (just a short drive away in Marple Bridge) and for secondary school Marple Hall School or Harrytown in Romiley.  Marple Sixth Form College is located less than 10 minutes away on foot. 

There are two railway stations - Rose Hill and Marple - each with regular services into Manchester Piccadilly in under 30 minutes.  Buses run regularly into Stockport and out to Hayfield, Mellor and Glossop and there's a circular service covering Romiley, Marple and Bredbury.  Commuting by car has never been more convenient with the A555 linking Hazel Grove to Manchester Airport with the A34, John Lewis at Cheadle and Handforth Dean, home to M&S, Tesco and more, eminently more accessible.

Children can enjoy the many well-equipped local parks including a skate park in the centre of the town, part of the Memorial Park.  Many of these parks enjoy fabulous views of the surrounding hills.  Etherow Country Park in Compstall plays host to a sailing club, Brabyns Park in Marple is well used for weekend sporting activities and by dog walkers and Lyme Park, owned by the National Trust is just a few miles away.  The Roman Lakes leisure complex is popular with walkers, horse riders and anglers and more recently volunteers have sought to preserve the remains of Samuel Oldknow’s historic mill.  The Garden House is a charity-run community farm, open to the public with pigs, alpacas, Shetland Ponies and more.

The Middlewood Way is a cycle path, popular with runners and walkers which follows the former Macclesfield, Bollington and Marple Railway line south from Rose Hill to Macclesfield.

The Peak Forest Canal runs for 15 miles between Ashton under Lyne and Whaley Bridge in Derbyshire, passing through Marple through the famed flight of 16 locks, separating the ‘upper’ and ‘lower’ parts of the canal.  Follow the canal path and take in the breathtaking views of the nearby Peak District; you are never far away from some outstanding walks.
