Characterful one-bedroom with scope for upgrades and rental potential.
Vacant possession and chain-free for an efficient purchase process
This one-bedroom apartment in the converted Butcher Works offers immediate, chain-free possession — ideal for a first-time buyer seeking a straightforward city base. The open-plan living room and kitchen, generous bathroom and a double bedroom make efficient use of the space while retaining mill-character features such as high ceilings and large industrial windows.
Positioned in central Sheffield, the home is within easy walking distance of universities, the station and a wide range of shops, cafés and transport links. The setting is a secure, cobbled communal courtyard surrounded by red-brick mill buildings, providing an atmospheric urban environment with no private garden.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold property (approximately 131 years remaining) with electric room heaters and secondary glazing; there is no communal gas heating. Broadband speeds are reported as very slow and the local crime level is very high, which may affect suitability for some purchasers or rental profiles. The building is solid-brick construction with assumed lack of wall insulation — there is potential to improve energy efficiency with targeted upgrades.
Overall, the apartment suits someone wanting an affordable, characterful first home or a buy-to-let in a student-oriented, city-centre location. Its vacant possession and modest council tax make for low running costs, while straightforward cosmetic or energy-efficiency improvements could increase comfort and long-term value.
