Shirebrook Road, Sheffield

This striking Victorian Villa stands in an elevated position within a wonderful plot, which extends approximately a quarter of an acre. 209 Shirebrook Road is a four/five bedroomed detached residence that presents an exciting opportunity for modernisation. Set within the grounds is a fabulous two-storey detached outbuilding, with scope for conversion to create additional accommodation within a self-contained annexe (subject to planning).

Constructed in 1864, this attractive Victorian home was one of two ‘Arundel Villas’ built at the time, and still retains much of its original character, such as high ceilings, some sash windows and deep skirtings.

An abundance of space is provided by a well-proportioned lounge, which features a cast iron fireplace and marble mantelpiece, and a bay-windowed dining room that is filled with natural light. The kitchen is also generously sized, along with a useful study/fifth bedroom and a bathroom.

Ideal for a growing family, the first floor contains four large double bedrooms, including the master bedroom which has an en-suite shower room. There is also a WC and the second floor houses a useful attic room that could be turned into another bedroom with a degree of work. Seen from the first and second floors are pleasant views towards Meersbrook Park.

The gardens accompanying the home are expansive and mature. A sizeable front garden sets the property back from the road, and a driveway runs adjacent to one side of the house, which provides parking for multiple vehicles and access to a single garage. A tiered garden is positioned to the rear, comprising lawns, established borders, seating areas and a superb open space at the top of the boundary.

The two-storey detached outbuilding currently incorporates four stores and a gardeners WC. Ripe for conversion into a habitable space (subject to planning), this outbuilding has excellent potential for the creation of self-contained accommodation due to having path access that could be easily separated from the main house. It could also make an amazing home office/studio for professionals and creatives.

209 Shirebrook Road is located on a quiet residential street in Meersbrook. The amenities of Chesterfield Road are within walking distance and include supermarkets, shops, cafes and public houses. Meersbrook Park and Graves Park are close by and a range of local state and private schooling. Public transport is easily accessible and Sheffield city centre is a short drive away, as well as the Peak District National Park.
