Summary - 42 TOTLEY BROOK ROAD SHEFFIELD S17 3QS
4 bed 1 bath Detached
Spacious period house on a quarter-acre plot near top-rated schools.
Four spacious double bedrooms with period features throughout
This distinguished Arts and Crafts detached house, built c.1913 in Cotswold stone, sits within a generous quarter-acre plot in highly regarded Dore. Four double bedrooms, two large reception rooms and plentiful original detail — parquet floors, stone mullion windows, ornate coving and period fireplaces — give the home authentic character and comfortable family living space across almost 1,913 sq ft.
Practical improvements include a full rewire and new central-heating plumbing installed in 2015, a refurbished bathroom completed in 2021 and a general refresh in 2020. The property also benefits from a large stone-built double garage with a new roof (2015), a sizable driveway behind wrought-iron gates and a thoughtfully landscaped, private garden laid out to maximise sun and shade — ideal for family play and outdoor entertaining.
There is clear scope to enlarge the house to the rear (subject to planning consent) for buyers seeking extra living space or to reconfigure interiors. Buyers should note there is only one main bathroom for four double bedrooms and the original stone walls are assumed to be uninsulated internally. Council tax is expensive, and some buyers may wish to confirm dates for double-glazing installations or consider further energy-efficiency upgrades.
Set in a peaceful, affluent suburb with excellent local schools and fast broadband, this is a rare, characterful family home that balances period charm with recent services updates. It will suit families or professionals wanting a spacious, characterful house close to local amenities and the Peak District, while accepting some typical maintenance and upgrade considerations for an early 20th-century stone property.
