An impressive six-bedroom Victorian semi sits on a very large, landscaped plot on Moorgate Road, blending grand period detail with flexible modern living. High ceilings, sash windows, ornate friezes and multiple original fireplaces give the house strong character and an immediately striking presence. The substantial converted basement and a detached double garage add practical space for a home office, gym or storage, while the conservatory and paved patio extend living outdoors into mature, walled gardens.
Internally the layout suits a large family: expansive reception rooms include a formal drawing room, dining room, snug/study and a spacious kitchen with a butler’s pantry and laundry facilities. Six generous bedrooms and two principal bathrooms — including a Victorian-style bathroom with a freestanding bath — provide comfortable accommodation, with attic rooms offering scope for further conversion (plumbing already in place).
Location and connectivity are strengths: easy access to the town centre, major roads (M1/Sheffield Parkway), nearby schools rated Good, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. These factors, combined with the property’s scale and period appeal, also make it of interest to investors seeking rental income or holiday-let possibilities.
Buyers should note material negatives openly: the property sits in an area with above-average crime and higher deprivation indicators, and council tax is described as expensive. Some parts of the exterior note potential damp and the attic/rooms require finishing, so budget for remedial and updating works despite many recent upgrades. Overall, this is a rare, character-rich home offering substantial space and development potential for buyers prepared to manage maintenance and finishing works.
