Characterful one-bedroom near Botanical Gardens — parking, recent upgrades, ideal starter home.
Larger-than-expected double bedroom with high ceilings and period features
A bright, larger-than-expected one-bedroom first-floor apartment set within a handsome stone Victorian building in the heart of Botanical Gardens. High ceilings and retained period features give the living space character, while recent renovations (new kitchen, shower room and double glazing) make it move-in ready.
Practical for city living — it includes residents’ off-street parking to the front and shared basement storage. The location is a major draw: a quiet one-way street, a short walk to the Royal Hallamshire Hospital, nearby universities and the shops and cafés of Ecclesall Road.
Important facts: the property is leasehold, EPC rated E and constructed before 1900 with a timber frame (no insulation assumed). These indicate likely higher heating costs and potential for further energy-efficiency improvements. The apartment’s 463 sq ft footprint is compact but well laid out, suited to professional couples, first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors.
Viewings are recommended to appreciate the spacious bedroom, period charm and convenient location. Buyers seeking turnkey condition will welcome the recent updates; buyers prioritising top energy performance should factor in potential insulation or upgrade work.
