Summary - 8 SHORTBROOK DRIVE WESTFIELD SHEFFIELD S20 8LG
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Strong rent yield potential near tram and schools.
Chain-free freehold three-bed terraced house
A straightforward, chain-free terraced house with clear rental upside in a high-demand lettings area. The property offers a practical three-bedroom layout across two storeys, with an open-plan ground floor and direct access to a small rear garden and outbuildings for storage. Double glazing, gas central heating and a combi boiler reduce immediate maintenance needs.
The house needs updating throughout. The kitchen and some interior finishes are worn and will require replacement or refurbishment to reach market rent or resale standards. The garden and exterior look neglected and would benefit from basic landscaping and repair work to maximise curb appeal.
Location is a core strength: close to several well-rated primary schools, local shops and frequent tram and bus connections into Sheffield. The freehold tenure and compact footprint make this suitable for a buy-to-let investor or someone seeking a project with relatively low acquisition cost and clear scope for value uplift.
Buyers should weigh local area factors: the wider neighbourhood shows signs of deprivation and recorded crime levels are high, which can affect tenant profiles and long-term capital growth. The property has only one bathroom and a small plot, which may limit appeal to larger families but keeps running costs low.
