Sparrow12   0 #1 Posted August 25, 2020 Hi all.  We're in the process of looking for a house to buy in Sheffield and have found one we've fallen in love with on Holywell Heights. The estate seems really nice (the seller has lived there for years raising a family with no issues) but looking online peoples opinions of the wider area seem to range from it's ok, to avoid at all costs!!! We've looked at crime maps and postcode checker sites etc and nothing concerning seems to jump out.   I was just wondering if the area is as bad as it's reputation may lead you to believe?  Has anyone any experience of living on the estate or nearby?       Any input greatly appreciated, thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
arrowhead   23 #2 Posted August 25, 2020 i don't think its 'bad' at all. i used to live near there. its got lots of things going for it but then a few things going against it.  What "bad reputation" have you heard about exactly?
