alexander874 Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Kelham Island is reckoned to be one of the most desirable places in Britain to live . New apartments all over that area . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestTinsley Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 (edited) Mosborough area , woodhouse , all of south east of sheffield. Alot seem to be moving from Town/Central-ish area of Sheffield due to ever increasing rents/house prices, to places such as Chapeltown Thorpe Hesley High Green Ecclesfield Stocksbridge ..and many who are originally from there are moving for the same reasons to nearby areas in Barnsley or Rotherham.. Maybe Barnsley is a cheaper option Edited August 9, 2017 by WestTinsley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DerbyTup Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Depends what you want I suppose? Inner city? Suburb? Semi-rural? Flat/Apartment? House? I'd suggest renting a property for 6 months or so and getting a feel for the place again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revel Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Avoid Parsons Cross, Shiregreen, Manor, Pitsmoor, Fir Vale, Firth Park, Wicker. It's hard to tell where these areas start and end. So I'd just avoid North, East, and S2 in the South (unfortunately where I live). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melcebu Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 you don't say how old you are if over 50 some good sheltered accommodation is available in Sheffield. Secured buildings with cheapish rent and if you live in one withe 30 or more flats it's £7-50 a year for your tv licence also a good deal the council have made for heating only 4 pence a therm ours is £2 a week in winter and nowt in summer.
