A home steeped in history

Set inside one of the oldest residential buildings in Sheffield, this spacious and elegant two-bedroom apartment manages to blend modern living with centuries of history within its walls.

The Grade II listed Georgian building – Burrowlee House – has a claim to fame dating back to 1711 as one of the area’s first houses built wholly from brick. In former years, this stunning piece of architecture has functioned as a doctor’s surgery and local council offices but in 2005 planning permission was granted to convert the building into four separate dwellings as they stand today. The apartments within Burrowlee House – combined with two additional homes in the grounds – form the exclusive, gated development of Burrowlee Park Square.

On arrival, the beautiful limestone walls and leaded sash windows of the manor house naturally steal the show, but the immaculate shared lawns and gardens also add to the picturesque curb appeal of the exterior. This unique, ground floor apartment has its own private entrance door along with two allocated parking spaces in the courtyard.

The kitchen sets the tone

Historical charm meets modern living in the kitchen – where you’ll find the building’s original beams which continue in the social spaces throughout the home. In here they are surrounded by flush spotlights to create a perfect ambience for cooking and hosting.

Double-fronted sash windows are also present throughout featuring beautiful original wooden shutters offering privacy and extra insulation – not to mention pleasing aesthetics. Contemporary walnut effect units are complemented by slick chrome fittings and appliances, including an impressive double oven and large hob. The fridge freezer and washing machine are integrated giving a minimalistic feel, whilst leaving plenty of space for a dining table. Porcelain tiled flooring underfoot offers the ultimate in practicality.

Characterful and cosy

The generously sized lounge also looks out onto the lawns through two floor-to-ceiling sash windows. Although the space is neutrally decorated, there is character in abundance from the deep skirtings and window seats to the oak beam running across the centre of the ceiling.

Here you’ll find plenty of space for entertaining and a gas fire with an attractive surround to warm up on cosy nights with loved ones. Wide glass doors – installed to make the most of the light and create a sense of open plan living – lead through to the hallway.

Divine dual-aspect

Bedroom one situated at the rear of the apartment features a quirky shape with its deep set, dual-aspect windows. Boasting a chic en-suite shower room in the same style as the family bathroom, this comfortable double room offers privacy and style in equal measure.

An added bonus in this corner of the home is the storage space tucked away down three stairs, where the entrance to the cellar of the original building used to lie. Today, it provides a handy area for suitcases, shelving or family items you don’t need on display.

Sweet dreams

A second comfortable double bedroom with a similar square footage to the other is the perfect size for children or guests.

Like the rest of the home, the traditional deep skirting boards and characterful sash window make this a brilliant blank canvas to put your stamp on.

Soak away

Situated in between the two bedrooms lies the stylish family bathroom.

Boasting a luxury spa feel with neutral tiles running floor to ceiling, this relaxing space with a large built-in bathtub will be a welcome treat at the end of the day. Complete with a chrome heated towel rail, a high quality wall-mounted basin, WC and a separate enclosed shower cubicle. With a large window for natural light, an oversized mirror and ample downlighting, your morning routine has never been easier!

Area to explore

Located in the Hillsborough area, famous as the home of Sheffield Wednesday Football Club, you’re less than three miles from Sheffield’s vibrant city centre.

Hop on the tram at Hillsborough Corner and in less than 10 minutes you’ll be in the heart of the steel city with an abundance of bars, restaurants and shops to delve into.

Theatre lovers will be in their element with shows all year round hosted at the Crucible or Lyceum Theatre located on Tudor Square. From here, you’ll also spot the city’s famous Winter Gardens to stroll through, an impressive and award-winning glasshouse built at the turn of the millennium.

People often think of Sheffield as an industrial city and if that’s your thing you’ll be interested to visit Kelham Island which is home to one of the city’s oldest manufacturing sites. Although the remains of numerous steel works, factories and workshops have survived, the area has undergone vast transformation.

Despite Sheffield’s industrial heritage, it’s actually one of the greenest cities in the UK. Sheffield has the highest ratio of trees to people in Europe - there are over two million across the city.

The Botanical Gardens – situated on the edge of the city centre – are a real highlight featuring more than 5,000 species of plants in a beautiful 19 acres of land. This is a perfect spot to relax in the spring and summer seasons when the blooms really come into their own.

Closer to home, entertainment can be found in the form of the annual Tramlines Festival showcasing local musicians and a matchday watching the Owls, of course. It’s not all about the urban lifestyle here though. When you’re looking for some well-earned peace and quiet, you can make the short drive to The Peak District – a stunning national park with endless walks and trails to explore.
