Freehold three-bedroom townhouse over three floors
This three-bedroom, three-storey freehold townhouse on Bankwood Road offers an unusually large internal area (approximately 2,070 sq ft) spread across multiple levels — a flexible layout suited to families or investors who need space. The property includes a bright living room, a modern kitchen area, private outdoor space and off-street parking. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, and the house has straightforward access into Sheffield city centre and the main train station.
The surrounding area presents both opportunity and challenges. Local amenities such as schools, parks, community facilities and public transport are nearby, supporting family life or rental demand. However the neighbourhood is classified as very deprived with a high local crime rate; buyers should factor this into occupation plans, security measures and rental assumptions. Council tax is low (Band A), which can reduce running costs for an owner-occupier or tenant.
The house’s construction dates from the 1960s–70s with a flat roof and brick exterior; some elements may need routine maintenance or updating depending on buyer expectations. There is only one bathroom for three bedrooms and the plot is very small, so outdoor space is limited. Overall, this property suits a first-time buyer seeking value and space to adapt, or an investor targeting an affordable, well-located rental with potential for modest refurbishment.
