Set within a converted Victorian detached house on Lydgate Lane, this three-bedroom, two-bathroom duplex occupies the first and second floors and offers a mix of period character and practical living space. The second-floor master suite is dual-aspect with an en suite and city-centre views, while a private level garden provides outdoor space rarely found with flats. At about 1,191 sq ft, the layout is roomy for family life or for professionals sharing space.
Practical details are straightforward: the property is leasehold with around 165–166 years remaining and a small annual ground rent of £50. Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators, glazing is double, and the home currently holds an EPC rating of D. Council tax is in a low band, and broadband and mobile signals are reported good to excellent.
Buyers should note a few material facts: the building’s solid brick walls are likely uninsulated (as originally built), and the EPC D reflects scope for thermal improvements and energy-saving upgrades. Some rooms (attic/second-floor areas) have lower ceilings and angled rooflines which may limit furniture layout. This property will suit buyers who value period features, generous internal space and a private garden, and who are prepared to invest in insulation or energy improvements if desired.
Situated in Crookes, the flat benefits from nearby good and outstanding schools, frequent local buses, shops and amenities, and easy access to the city centre. It should appeal to families and professionals seeking a spacious home with character close to Sheffield’s amenities.
