This compact one-bedroom apartment in Kelham Island offers low-maintenance, contemporary city living in a well-connected 2021 development. The open-plan kitchen/living area and double bedroom make efficient use of 411 sq ft, suitable for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking central Sheffield convenience.
Key practical benefits include lift access, communal gardens and a long lease (circa 243 years remaining). The location places bars, cafes, shops and Supertram links within easy walking distance, so daily travel and leisure are straightforward without needing a car.
Buyers should note the property’s small internal size and electric room heaters as the main limitations — these can mean higher running costs compared with gas-heated homes. The area reports very high crime levels and local deprivation, facts that will concern some purchasers and may influence rental demand or resale expectations.
Financially, the apartment is leasehold with modest ground rent (£150pa) and a service charge around £1,006.38pa. Council Tax is a lower band, which helps running costs, but readers should factor in service charge and electricity costs when assessing affordability.
