This second-floor, one-bedroom apartment in Atlantic One offers a compact, modern city-centre base with clear rental appeal. The open-plan living area and contemporary fitted kitchen with breakfast bar maximise usable space, while double glazing and a lift-served entrance add convenience and low-maintenance comfort. The property is offered with vacant possession and no onward chain, making it straightforward to complete.
Practical considerations include the small overall size (approximately 428 sq ft) and electric room heaters rather than a central heating system, which may affect running costs and tenant expectations. Broadband speeds in the area are reported as very slow — an important factor if targeting students or professionals who work from home. Annual outgoings comprise a service charge of about £1,480.60 and ground rent of £263.39.
For investors, the flat’s proximity to Sheffield University, central hospitals and city-centre amenities supports steady demand from students and short-term professionals. The lease remains long (around 233 years), reducing immediate lease-extension risk. Note that the wider area records higher crime levels; consider management and security measures when assessing tenancy and insurance.
Overall this is a straightforward, low-upkeep investment or starter home in a modern block. It suits buyers prioritising location and easy access to city services, provided they accept a compact layout, electric heating, slower broadband and regular service charges.
