3 bed town house for sale

Stanley Road, Burncross, Sheffield S35

Why we love it

Most houses at this price look out onto another house. This one looks out across open green space to Charlton Brook. It's the first thing you notice when you walk into the living room, and it gives the whole house a calm that's hard to find this close to Chapeltown.

The house

The front door opens into a hallway leading to the main rooms. The kitchen is at the front of the house. The living space is at the back, where it makes the most of the setting: A generous living and dining room with patio doors opening straight onto the garden and the view beyond. It's an easy room to live in day to day, with space to have family and friends round.

Upstairs there are three good-sized bedrooms and a family bathroom, all well presented. At 839 sq ft, the house gives a growing household room to settle, without the upkeep that comes with something larger.

Outside

The private rear garden is a quiet spot to sit out. It looks across the green space rather than into neighbouring gardens. The garage sits in a nearby block and takes the bikes, tools and garden kit that would otherwise end up in the hallway.

The location

Burncross is a well-established residential area on the northern edge of Sheffield. Chapeltown is a short walk away, with shops, cafés, schools and a railway station with regular trains into the city. The M1 at Junction 35 is within easy reach for anyone commuting further afield. Open countryside starts almost on the doorstep.

Worth knowing

The house is sold with no onward chain, so the timescale is set by you. At this price, first-time buyers pay no stamp duty.
