This two-bedroom, two-bath apartment at Anchor Point offers practical city living just off Bramall Lane, a short walk from Sheffield city centre and local transport links. The 770 sq ft open-plan layout includes an ensuite to the primary bedroom and a balcony, providing usable outside space uncommon for many city flats. Neutral, modern finishes mean the property is largely move-in ready.
The building is relatively new (constructed 2007–2011) with double glazing and an efficient footprint. The long lease (about 230 years) and chain-free sale make purchase straightforward for both buy-to-let investors and owner-occupiers. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, supporting home working or student tenants.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: heating relies on electric room heaters rather than a central gas system, which can be more expensive to run. The property sits in a high-crime, economically deprived neighbourhood with a large student population; this affects the long-term resident profile and may influence resale or family appeal. Ground rent is modest (£200) but the tenure is leasehold, so standard leasehold considerations apply.
Overall, this apartment suits an investor seeking a city-centre rental or a first-time buyer wanting a compact, low-maintenance base close to Sheffield amenities. It offers immediate occupancy and rental potential, balanced against higher running costs and local area factors that buyers should weigh carefully.
