If house prices remained constant in every area of Sheffield, i.e you could live in whichever area you want at no extra cost, where would you pick and why? :)

Manor Park no doubts

In the penthouse suite at the Town Hall (If there is one)
Reason Pretty central eh!

High Bradfield for me without a doubt.

There are some massive houses in Carsick...

Shame about the name though... :lol:

Is Carsick :shock: part of Ranmoor, Fulwood or Sandygate and which of the three would you say is the nicest?

Crosspool, Loxley, Bradfield or Worrall. Or stannington Village, then I could tell people like myself that they live at Malin Bridge not Stannington ! :D You council scum!!!

LOL :lol: I have a mate who tells everyone he lives at Loxley and he lives round the corner from the yew tree pub at Malin Bridge.
When asked which part of Loxley he lives he says near the Admiral Rodney.

fulwood, in a mansion with big garden

I think I'd move up to Dore/Whirlow/Fulwood or Chatsworth... maybe even Bakewell!

Does Chatsworth / Bakewell come under Sheffield Dabouncer ?.

Probably not... but I added it in anyway!

Fullwood....my b'friend works near there and all the rich Dr's Consultants etc basically all the rich BA5TARDS liver there, and the houses are MASSIVE and cost an arm and a leg

Maybe rich 'PEOPLE' would have been better? It's not their fault they have jobs which pay them lost of money. I'm guessing they must have studied for it!

Also my finacee's family are from that neck of the woods and her Dad is a builder and by no means 'rich'... he does work hard 7 days a week in London to earn his money and comes home for the weekend once a fortnight.

There's a nice double fronted detached house on Crescent Road in Nether Edge that I am hoping will come on the market in about 3 years.

But if I had the choice? Top two floors of the Arts Tower & a roof Garden maybe.

Or the big house out at Stanage Edge

But actually where I am right now, off Empire Road is pretty fantastic if a little run down...

Maybe they are arm and leg surgeons, hence they are able to sell them on the blackmarket and reap the rewards many of us can only sit back and dream of.

I'd live right slap bang where I live now!

I love it here, it's within easy reach of town, it's a lovely area, I have lots of friends round here. In fact, I love this district so much, i have moved/ moved back here three times!

I think Nether Edge is one of the nicest areas in Sheffield. It has some lovely old houses and huge trees, and it's just really friendly and funky and full of interesting people.

Why? I moved up from London 15 years ago and have never looked back! It's a great place to live with all the advantages of a city (OK the shopping's a bit crap I admit, but getting a bit better soon) plus fabulous countryside virtually within sight!

Ranmoor/Broomhill , is near to town, but you can get to Peak District quickly. Also safe area.

Doctors and consultants get them ten a penny these days ;) Chuck in a amputated leg now and again to sweeten the deal ;)

I dont know where I would live, me and my girlfriend are going to be looking for sumwhere next year but dont know what to look at with a combined salery of bout 20k, what's best price house to look for?

Somewhere with a big garden, within walking distance of a tram stop, possibly Riverlin.

I agree - I enjoyed staying my relative's Ranmoor house years ago.

Broomhill is near town, I wouldn't class Ranmoor as near town.

Well I say I live at Stannington, when many of the people in "the village" of Stannington would say I live in Malin Bridge. I defer to H.M. Postal Service who back me up in this matter.

I don't like the idea of coming from Malin Bridge either - its too close to Hillsborough!!
;-)

On a boat in the quays (which will happen when we get to the top of the never ending waiting list for moorings)

Got to love Netheredge........worked in Crosspool recently and it seems really nice up there, apart from that nice small holding somewhere pretty

The districts are pretty much side by side, though, nick...

Ranmoor sort of starts just before you hit the Hallam Towers Hotel, just after the traffic lights at the bottom of Manchester Road, and continues down towards endcliffe/ fulwood.

Sorry haven't read the thread.. but i lived in sharrow just near london road for a year and it was ace.

I'd live in John Lewis. I love that shop. If i could i'd buy it and have it as my house. it would be great i'd have everything i ever needed.

The Yew Tree (and Malin Bridge for that matter) stand in an area that used to be known as 'Loxley Bottom'. I think Malin Bridge came into use to describe the area only after it became a terminus for the old trams.

I can't imagine anywhere nicer in Sheffield than where I live now. But Nether Edge always had an attraction for me as a boy....all those conker trees !! :D And my first girl friend lived in Nether Edge ;)

Somewhere in S10, or if I had to, S11.

Bradfield is the place to be.

I wouldnt move from where I am. I say Rivelin as my house is in the valley (fields and the river in front of me) but I think it is actually classed as Stannington.

But cant beat it. 10 minutes and your in town (by car) and 10 minutes and your at ladybower.
