For Sale by the Modern Method of Auction No Chain and Vacant Possession | Close to Sheffield Hospitals | Gated Driveway for Multiple Vehicles | Detached Cottage Annexe | Investment or Large Family Home Opportunity Situated on the highly sought-after Glossop Road in the heart of Broomhall, this substantial and characterful property presents a rare opportunity to acquire a spacious five-bedroom residence with a separate cottage annexe, offering exceptional versatility for a variety of buyers.
Whether you are looking for a large family home, a multi-generational living arrangement, or a strong investment opportunity, this property offers significant potential in one of Sheffield’s most well-connected and desirable locations.
The main house provides generous accommodation across three floors, combining period charm with flexible living space.
Upon entering the property, you are welcomed by two well-proportioned reception rooms, ideal for both relaxing and entertaining.
The ground floor also benefits from a double bedroom, shower room, separate W/C and a practical utility room, offering convenient living arrangements for guests or family members.
The upper floors provide four further spacious bedrooms and a family bathroom, creating ample accommodation for larger households or potential rental arrangements.
To the rear of the property is a private enclosed garden with patio and lawned areas, offering a peaceful outdoor space rarely found so close to the city centre.
A particularly unique feature of this property is the separate cottage annexe (455A Glossop Road), located within the grounds and benefitting from its own private access.
This additional building offers excellent flexibility and could be utilised as independent accommodation, a home office, guest suite, or potential rental unit, subject to any necessary planning and regulatory requirements.
Further enhancing the property is the gated private driveway providing off-street parking for multiple vehicles, an extremely rare benefit in this central location.
While the property is well maintained, some cosmetic modernisation would allow a new owner to enhance the space and fully realise its potential, creating either a stunning family residence or a highly attractive investment.
Investment Potential The property was previously utilised as a House in Multiple Occupation (HMO) and presents an appealing opportunity for investors.
Based on current local rental demand, investors could potentially achieve approximately £85–£95 per room per week on standard tenancies, subject to condition, licensing and compliance.
Additionally, the property may lend itself to a range of alternative uses, subject to the necessary planning permissions and regulatory approvals.
Location Glossop Road is widely regarded as one of Sheffield’s most desirable central locations, positioned within walking distance of the Royal Hallamshire Hospital, Sheffield Children’s Hospital, and the University of Sheffield, making it particularly attractive to medical professionals, academics, students, and families alike.
