Set on Vicar Lane in Sheffield’s Cathedral Quarter, this two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment offers a practical city base with a large private balcony and allocated secure parking just steps away. The open-plan living area and fully equipped contemporary kitchen provide low-maintenance, ready-to-use accommodation suited to first-time buyers or investors seeking immediate rental potential.
The master bedroom benefits from an en-suite, while a second bedroom and separate bathroom provide genuine flexibility for housemates or short-term lets. The apartment sits in a modern red-brick development (circa 2003–2006) with good natural light from multiple windows and an overall footprint of about 706 sq ft.
Buyers should note material facts plainly: the property is leasehold (129 years remaining) with an EPC rating of D, and main heating is by electric room heaters rather than a central gas system. The location is central with excellent transport and digital connectivity, but the area has a higher recorded crime level and no private garden—this is a city-centre, urban property rather than a suburban family home.
For investors, advertised potential rental income is around £1,100 pcm and the apartment is being offered chain-free, making it straightforward to acquire. For first-time buyers, the practical layout, parking and balcony are strong everyday benefits, but factor in service/management charges typical of leasehold flats and the likely need to budget for energy improvements over time.
