This two-bedroom maisonette on Netherthorpe Street offers a straightforward, affordable entry into Sheffield housing. The flat is chain-free and includes a living room with a private balcony, two bedrooms and a separate kitchen/dining area — useful for first-time buyers or investors seeking rental potential close to hospitals and the university (under a mile).
The property requires substantial modernisation: the kitchen is dated, there are signs of damp and mould, and heating is by electric room heaters. Energy performance is rated E. These are practical issues that will require budget and contractor time but also present scope to add value through refurbishment.
A significant legal/finance drawback is the short lease: only around 63 years remaining, which will likely prevent most mortgage lenders from lending. Buyers should seek specialist legal and mortgage advice before committing. Service charge and ground rent are low, council tax band is cheap, and the flat is vacant for immediate possession, which simplifies a quick purchase for cash buyers or investors prepared to fund a full refurbishment.
The location is convenient for students, hospital staff and city workers, with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. However, the area is recorded as very deprived with higher local crime rates; buyers should weigh location benefits against these local social and safety considerations.
