According to five-star homebuilder Barratt Manchester, location is still one of the most important considerations for buyers looking for their dream home.

In light of this, the leading homebuilder is encouraging house hunters in Cheshire to consider Macclesfield as the location to settle in a forever home and has revealed its top four advantages of moving to the area.

Michaela Lancaster, Sales Director at Barratt Manchester said: “Our beautiful new homes are thoughtfully situated so residents can make the most of the local amenities, meaning they are not only benefiting from a quality home, but also the convenience and pleasure in the surrounding areas.

“For anyone looking for a fresh start in a brand new property, we have compiled our greatest benefits of the location of our Silk Waters Green development in Macclesfield.”
