Eighth-floor apartment with elevated city views
Situated on the eighth floor of City Point, this larger-than-average one-bedroom apartment offers clear city views and a walk-on balcony — strong practical appeal for investors or first-time buyers seeking central living. The apartment provides a separate fitted kitchen, a well-proportioned living room, a double bedroom and a modern bathroom with shower over bath. The internal floor area (approx. 636 sq ft) is generous for a one-bed in the city centre.
The property has a proven rental track record, previously achieving £895 PCM, and benefits from fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — useful income and letting credentials in a student and young-professional rental market. The building is lift-served and double-glazed, with secure shared access and typical modern-block conveniences.
Buyers should note material costs and constraints: the apartment is leasehold (about 191 years remaining) and carries an average service charge of £3,400 (confirm basis and frequency). Heating is electric via room heaters, which may mean higher running costs compared with gas. The area is busy and characterised by a higher local crime score, reflecting its central, student-focused location.
Overall, this City Point apartment suits investors looking for an easy-to-manage city-let or buyers wanting a spacious, low-maintenance first home in the heart of Sheffield. Viewings will show the scale and elevated outlook; factor in service charges and electric heating when assessing net yield or monthly costs.
