Theres some info here (http://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/showthread.php?s=&threadid=29328&highlight=forty+foot) you might find useful Andrex. Welcome to the Sheffield Forum! :wave:

:rant: just walked passed this place and notice the for sale sign which states, for sale 25 luxury flats FROM £99,950, has the world gone mad?

I was looking at houses on vebra.com and noticed these. Some of them are going for upto 125!? If they sell any of those there must be some really gullable people! You can get equally "high spec" houses in town for that price, or on much nicer developments like Norfolk Park.

people must be mad to buy on there the crimes outter control

'For sale 25 luxury flats from £99,950?' I say that's a bargain, less than £4K each (!)

LOL

I live a bit furhter up Herries road from there myself in a decent sized 2 bed semi. It is worth 25-30k less than they are expecting for the cheapest appartments, and I know which I would choose. I bet they still sell though!

Funny you should mention Norfolk Park march......I've recently posted the following information on a separate Norfolk Park thread.

I called into the sales office on Norfolk Park today, as I'd promised to let the sales staff have some photos of the very last blow-down of the tower block we'd recently attended.

I'd also promised Andy83 (in a PM) that I'd check on the sales. Here's what's currently available as of Sat 07 May.....

Suffolk: 3 storey house, 3 bedrooms, integral garage
Plot 125 - reserved
Plot 126 - reserved
Plot 127 - £130,500
Plot 128 - £130,000
Plot 130 - £130,500
Plot 131 - reserved
Plot 132 - £130,500
Plot 133 - £130,500

Fitzwilliam: detached, 4 bedrooms, 2 parking spaces
Plot 134 - reserved

Cavendish: 2 bedroom apartment
Plot 138 - £118,000 (ground floor)
Plot 142 - £120,000 (first floor)

There are also flats to rent, at £500 p.c.m., at the Queens Tower development on Norfolk Park.

Norfolk Park is an extremely desireable place to live, is up and coming, and frankly, beats the pants off a whole host of other places in Sheffield.

I saw that on the Norfolk Park thread. I don't suppose you know anything about any further developments there do you? If there are any when are they likely to come on to the market?
