Which Areas Should I Buy?

[Michael_N 36]

If you don’t mind travelling, North & Eastern Sheffield are generally cheaper, out towards Rotherham. Rotherham is pretty cheap in comparison to Sheffield too, so you get more house for your money and there are some decent areas.

 

All dependant on yourselves. If you want South & Western Sheffield you’ll be looking around £200k for a 2up, 2 down terrace; where as North & Eastern Sheffield you could get a 4 bed semi for the same price.

 

With travel in mind, set an area search up on Rightmove and go with the right house; then look at the areas after you’ve found a decent one

 

If prepared to travel further out, Barnsley and Rotherham are generally cheaper too. Rotherham is a lot closer and some areas of Rotherham are less than 4/5 miles into the city.

The issue of good and bad areas applies equally to Rotherham and Barnsley

Hello bit late but thank you very much for your reply!. We always wanted to move to Sheffield and at many point did consider Rotherham because like you said - price wise bit better however job & travel wise we need something a bit more local. So we decided to go with our former choice.

 

I had a quick look at Beighton area. Just wonder if you've got any advice regarding Handsworth, Hackenthorpe or Richmond? Thank you 😃
