Beautiful 5 bedroom home for sale in Loxley, Sheffield

The lucky buyer of 46 Hanson Road, Loxley, right on the edge of the city, will not only get a gorgeous family property, but a substantial plot, so big it contains lawns, a vegetable plot, an orchard and an enclosed private wood perfect for imaginative children to explore.

It’s been home for the past six years to Cat and her husband Mark, who is a hospital consultant, their two youngsters.

But now, with a desire to own a home with the potential to run Air bnb lets on the side, plus ultimately give Mark’s mum her own granny suite, these reluctant sellers are putting their dream home on the market.

Cat said: “The location of this house couldn’t be better for families. Loxley itself is lovely, with outstanding primary schools, but the area offers so much more. The house is on a corner plot with roughly a third of an acre of land – the garden has a wooded area, and the views are amazing towards High Bradfield.

“It offers the best of suburban living, but right on the edge of the countryside; within walking distance you can reach the reservoir, or enjoy a beautiful walk down to the river, which takes you straight to the Peaks.”

Take the tour

Inside this three-storey property is well-thought out living space, including three bathrooms, five bedrooms (four of which are doubles) and an elegant flow from room to room.

Much of your time will be spent in the bright and sunny open plan kitchen/dining/living room, complete with bespoke plantation shutters, solid oak units and an amazing view into the dry-stone wall bordered garden and beyond.

The large sitting room has dual aspects, including bifold doors opening out onto the ample rear garden, merging outdoor space with family living seamlessly.

On the first floor there are two good sized doubles (one en-suite) and a single bedroom, while upstairs via the stylish feature stair are two more double bedrooms.

All bathrooms are east facing, and floods with sunlight at dawn – perfect for early risers.

There’s a garage, off road parking for at least two cars and a charging point for electric vehicles.

If the new buyers wanted to extend the property comes with planning permission for a substantial 60 square metre extension.

Out and about

Loxley is arguably Sheffield’s best kept secret, offering so much more than the marvellous home itself. Loxley valley, the Damn Flask and the common are on your doorstep, and the walking and cycling routes of the Peaks are just moments away.

There are three brewery taps within a 20 minute walk, and the much-loved Admiral Rodney, with a jaw-dropping view from its sun deck, is a gentle stroll away.

There’s a strong sense of community in Loxley, and the Regis describe their neighbours as ‘wonderful’.

All this, and it is less than 20 minutes to the centre of Sheffield.

The house is on the market for £550,000. Find out more and book a viewing here.
