Taptonville Crescent, Broomhill, Sheffield, S10

Set behind a private approach on Taptonville Crescent, Holme Lea is one of just five substantial Victorian homes arranged around a beautifully maintained communal garden square - a rare and quietly special setting in the heart of Broomhill.

This is a house with real presence. From the moment you arrive, the architecture sets the tone - stone elevations, bay windows and original detailing that speak to its heritage. Step inside and the sense of quality continues, with an impressive entrance hallway featuring high ceilings, elegant proportions and period detailing, offering a striking first impression and a glimpse of the craftsmanship carried throughout the home.

Extending to over 4,800 sq. ft., the accommodation is both generous and highly adaptable, arranged across multiple levels with a layout that offers far more than a traditional family home.

The ground floor is centred around a series of outstanding reception rooms, including a particularly impressive lounge and formal dining room - elegant in scale, rich in character and perfectly suited to both everyday living and larger gatherings.

The kitchen provides a more relaxed focal point - a well-appointed and sociable space with a central dining area, quality cabinetry and a layout designed for day-to-day living. It connects naturally to the rear of the property, creating an easy flow between inside and out.

To the rear, a self-contained annexe offers independent accommodation, complete with its own bedroom, living/kitchen area and shower room - ideal for multi-generational living, guest space or a private home office.

Across the upper floors, the flexibility continues. The first floor combines a number of well-proportioned bedrooms with a separate self-contained living area, incorporating its own kitchen/living space and additional bedrooms, offering the option for independent occupation or a dedicated suite for family members.

The second floor provides a further distinct living arrangement, with its own kitchen/living space, bedrooms and bathroom, creating a third clearly defined zone within the home.

In total, the property offers nine bedrooms and four bath/shower rooms, with the configuration allowing for a variety of living arrangements depending on requirements.

Beneath the main house is an extensive cellar level, providing a substantial amount of additional space currently used for storage and utility purposes, with clear potential for further adaptation subject to the necessary consents. A particularly rare feature is the inclusion of a working lift connecting the ground and first floors, adding a valuable level of accessibility and future-proofing to a home of this period.

Externally, the setting is as compelling as the house itself. A sweeping driveway provides off-road parking for multiple vehicles and enhances the sense of arrival, while to the rear, a beautifully designed stone terrace offers a private and picturesque outdoor space. Raised planters, mature planting and a timber pergola create structure and interest, making this an ideal setting for outdoor dining and entertaining.

Despite its peaceful position, Holme Lea sits within easy walking distance of Broomhill’s independent shops, cafés and restaurants, as well as both universities, highly regarded private and public local schools, the train station and Sheffield city centre.

A home of this scale, flexibility and setting is rarely available - offering a unique opportunity to acquire one of the area’s most distinctive period properties.

REDBRIK SECUREMOVE™ - IMPORTANT PLEASE READ:

Redbrik is marketing this property with the benefit of Redbrik SecureMove™. Redbrik has introduced SecureMove™ to help speed up the sales process, minimise sale fall-throughs and give more certainty to both the Seller and the Buyer. Purchasers will benefit from the Buyer Information Pack (BIP), which we have created with our legal partners, to give buyers more information before they agree to purchase.

The pack includes:

TA6 (Property Information Form)

TA10 (Fittings and Contents)

Official Copy of the Register

Title Plan

Local Search*

Water and Drainage Search*

Coal and Mining Search*

Environmental Search*

(Redbrik has ordered the local, drainage, coal and environmental searches; we will add these to the BIP as they become available)

Redbrik SecureMove™ allows the sale process to be completed significantly quicker than a ‘normal sale’. This is because the legal work, usually done in the first four to eight weeks after the sale is agreed, has already been completed. The searches, which can take up to five weeks, are ordered on the day the listing goes live and are transferable to the successful Buyer as part of their legal due diligence.

Additionally, and on behalf of the Seller, Redbrik requires the successful Buyer to enter into a Reservation Agreement and pay the Reservation Agreement Fee of £595 (including VAT). This includes payment for the Buyer Information Pack and all the searches (which a buyer typically purchases separately after the sale is agreed).

Upon receipt of the signed Reservation Agreement, payment of the Reservation Agreement Fee, completion of ID and AML checks and the issuing of the Memorandum of Sale, the Seller will agree to take the Property off the market and market it as Sold Subject To Contract (SSTC).

During the Reservation Agreement period, the Seller will reject all offers and not enter into another agreement with any other buyer. The reservation period is agreed upon at the time of sale but is usually between 60 and 120 days.

The Reservation Fee is non-refundable except where the Seller withdraws from the sale. A copy of the Reservation Agreement is available on request, and Redbrik advises potential buyers to seek legal advice before entering into the Reservation Agreement.
