Summary - WHITE CROFT WORKS, 69 APARTMENT 9 FURNACE HILL SHEFFIELD S3 7AH
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
High-yield potential in a walkable, student-focused neighbourhood.
Blank-canvas one-bedroom open-plan apartment, 470 sq ft
A bright, open-plan one-bedroom apartment in White Croft Works, well positioned for Sheffield city centre and Kelham Island. The layout includes a generous hallway with built-in storage, an open-plan kitchen/lounge with large windows and good natural light, a double bedroom and a modern three-piece bathroom. At about 470 sq ft, the flat is a compact but practical urban home or rental unit.
This property is presented as a blank canvas with an advertised high-yield potential (around 11%), making it attractive for investors targeting the city’s student and rental markets. Practical features include allocated off-street parking and double glazing; the building dates from the mid-2000s and benefits from cavity wall insulation.
Notable running costs and constraints are factual: the property is leasehold with 107 years remaining, a ground rent of £150 and an average service charge around £1,300 per year. Broadband speeds are reported as very slow, and the local area records higher crime levels — both important for residents and lettings considerations. Buyers should also expect the apartment to require finishing touches if they prefer a personalised fit-out.
Overall this is a compact modern apartment with clear investor appeal due to location and yield potential, and with straightforward weaknesses to assess: service charges, broadband limitations and local crime statistics. A viewing will confirm condition, light levels and proximity to transport links and amenities.
