Summary - Cliff Street, Sheffield S11 8FA
2 bed 1 bath Maisonette
Two double bedrooms, private balcony, long lease — ideal first home or buy-to-let opportunity.
Private balcony overlooking communal green space
A spacious two-double-bedroom maisonette arranged over two levels, offering 837 sq ft of flexible living with a private balcony overlooking communal greenery. The large reception room, separate kitchen/diner and four dedicated storage rooms give practical space for first-time buyers or landlords wanting straightforward layouts and rental appeal. The property sits in a mid-century concrete residential block built in the late 1960s/early 1970s and benefits from double glazing and mains gas central heating.
Financially this is an accessible entry point: 120 years remain on the lease, the annual service charge is modest at £822.08 and council tax is very cheap. There is an additional ground rent figure shown at £822.08 per year and an optional car parking fee of £130 pa — the ground rent level is notable and may affect long-term costs and yields. EPC C and no flood risk are practical positives for mortgageability and lettings.
Be candid about the local context: the property is in an inner-city, very deprived area with above-average crime levels. That reduces some buyer and family appeal but supports lettability and yields for investors seeking value in a well-connected S11 location close to Ecclesall Road, Abbeydale Road, Sharrow and Sheffield city centre. The block’s brutalist concrete aesthetic and communal setting will suit buyers who prioritise location and space over period charm.
Overall this maisonette is best for first-time buyers seeking roomy accommodation in a central Sheffield neighbourhood, or investors after an affordable, long-lease asset with clear rental potential. Buyers should factor the ground rent level, local area profile and building character into their decision and viewing checklist.
