New Homes In Sheffield FAQs

• What is life like in Sheffield?

  The Steel City has come a long way since its rise to industrial prominence, and its urban renewal means you can enjoy a wonderful way of life in Sheffield. The local property market reveals lots of great choices in and around the city, and the dream home you’ve had your eye on could be within your reach thanks to our range of offers.

• What is there to see and do in Sheffield?

  Whether you’re paying homage to the city’s heritage by visiting the museums that now reside in the old forges, foundries and mills, or taking advantage of the spectacular Peak District just to the west of town, there are lots of cultural and natural attractions to savour in this area. 
  
  From trips to Kelham Island Museum and the Millennium Gallery, to visits to the city’s botanical gardens and the National Videogame Museum, you can look back across miles of beautiful scenery from Stanage Edge, then go walking round a host of reservoirs hidden between the hills and rugged peaks. 

• What is the education like in Sheffield?

  Sheffield has a number of schools which are ranked among the best in the North of England, including Crosspool’s Tapton School rated as outstanding by Ofsted. If you’re after an independent girls’ school, then Sheffield High School for Girls in the Broomhall area could be ideal. 
  
  If your kids are a bit younger, then Totley Primary School to the south west of the city centre is a top performing option with Ofsted’s outstanding seal of approval. Lydgate Junior School could prove a solid pathway to Tapton School, while Mosborough Primary School is a good choice if you’re in the south east of the city.

• How are the transport links in Sheffield?

  Sheffield’s public transport system consists of trams and buses, giving you a couple of convenient ways to get around the city. For trips out of town, the M1 motorway passes to the east, providing direct access to Leeds in the north and Nottingham, Leicester, Northampton and London to the south. Doncaster Sheffield Airport meanwhile is a half-hour drive away with its selection of routes to Europe and beyond. 

• What is the property scene like in Sheffield?

  Sheffield never went away, but it’s certainly emerged as a vibrant and cosmopolitan hub in recent years. This means there’s a buoyant property market which could yield superb returns on investment later down the line.
