This bright two-bedroom first-floor apartment offers an accessible and low-maintenance home for a first-time buyer or couple. The open-plan living space is well presented with contemporary kitchen fittings, quartz-effect worktops and dual-aspect windows that keep the living area light. A recent boiler installation and double glazing add practical value and reduce immediate maintenance concerns.
Practical benefits include an allocated off-street parking space, very low council tax (Band A), and a long lease of around 180 years. The building dates from the early 2000s, with cavity wall insulation and gas central heating via radiators, so the property is move-in ready for most buyers.
Be mindful of a few material points: the apartment is leasehold with a modest annual service charge (£900) and small ground rent (£100). Broadband speeds in the area are reported as slow, which may affect home working; however mobile signal is excellent. Local crime levels are higher than average, so buyers should factor personal security and insurance considerations into their decision.
Location is convenient for public transport, with a nearby tram stop and good links to Sheffield city centre and the M1. Local amenities — shops, healthcare, leisure and schools — are all within reach, making this a practical, affordable option for someone buying their first home.
