Contemporary 1-bed with balcony in lively Kelham Island — ideal first home or buy-to-let.
One-bedroom open-plan apartment with private balcony
A bright, modern one-bedroom apartment in Kelham Island, offering open-plan living and a private balcony overlooking the canal-side neighbourhood. At around 585 sq ft, the layout suits a single buyer or couple wanting low-maintenance city living within walking distance of cafés, bars, shops and public transport.
The block was built post-2007 and benefits from secure entry, double glazing and fast broadband/mobile connectivity. Service charge and ground rent are predictable (approx. £1,200pa and £100pa respectively) and the lease has about 108 years remaining, making this straightforward for mortgage and resale considerations.
There are some practical considerations to note. Heating is electric (room heaters) rather than gas central heating, which can raise running costs. The area records higher crime levels than national averages and the property sits in a medium flood-risk zone — important factors for insurance and long-term security.
Overall, this apartment offers an accessible, contemporary base in a lively, well-connected part of Sheffield. It will especially suit first-time buyers seeking a convenient, city-centre location or investors targeting strong rental demand from students and young professionals, provided they factor in running costs and local risk factors.
