WHAT THE OWNER SAYS
"I’ve lived here for 43 years and it’s been a wonderful place to call home. The neighbours are friendly and supportive, we all keep in touch through a WhatsApp group and in person. It’s such a convenient location, with Crookes high street, the University, good schools and hospitals all within easy reach. I’ve loved the good-sized, south-facing garden and the excellent bus service into Sheffield. Walking down the road, there’s a stunning view of the city centre, and it’s only a short stroll to Crosspool or up to Bolehill Recreation Ground for fantastic views over Stannington and beyond."
Tucked away on a peaceful residential road, this welcoming home combines a comfortable layout, bright interiors and a beautiful south-facing garden that backs directly onto Lydgate Park, giving you green views and a lovely sense of space.
Step inside through the front door into a light hallway, with stairs leading up ahead and the living room to your left. The living room is filled with natural light from the bay window, and the chimneybreast with its gas fire creates a cosy focal point, perfect for curling up on the sofa in winter or catching up with friends on a Sunday afternoon.
At the back of the house, the kitchen is both practical and inviting. There’s space for a breakfast table, plenty of storage in the L-shaped units, and room for your freestanding appliances. The window overlooks the garden, so you can enjoy peaceful views while cooking or sharing a relaxed breakfast. A side door leads directly out to the garden, making it easy to carry out morning coffee or evening drinks in warmer months.
Upstairs, the home continues to impress with two spacious double bedrooms and a versatile single room that would make a great home office, nursery or guest space. The front bedroom enjoys the charm of a bay window, while the rear double has built-in wardrobes and lovely views over the garden and park beyond. The bathroom is bright and well-presented, fitted with a bath and shower above, WC and washbasin.
Outside, the property offers off-street parking, a neat front lawn and side access to the rear garden. The garden itself is a real highlight, south-facing and backing onto Lydgate Park, it feels private, open and beautifully green. There’s a paved patio area ideal for BBQs, al fresco dining or a quiet evening glass of wine, and a good-sized lawn framed by two mature apple trees and raised flowerbeds bursting with seasonal colour.

Crookes is one of the most sought-after suburbs with young professionals and families, thanks to its fantastic, vibrant high street. There’s a brilliant choice of coffee shops and cafes including Cloud Coffee Co, Lisboa Café & Patisserie, Dana Café, Pom Kitchen and Crumb, to name a few. For more treats, Sorrel’s Cocoa Bakery is a must, and Tenaya Wine has brilliant stock for the vino lovers. For that after-work pint, again there’s a great choice with The Grindstone, The Punch Bowl, The Ball, Early Bar and Two Sheds.
Crookes also has brilliant green spaces. Bole Hills stands out, there’s a playground, BMX track and incredible views down Rivelin Valley, especially at sunset. It’s an incredibly popular spot for dog owners too, and nearby Lydgate Park is a favourite with families with small children thanks to its playground.
