Sheffield · S21 4FX
A four-bedroom Victorian detached home on the main road through Eckington, fully renovated by the current vendors. The reroof, restored windows, modern plumbing and rewired electrics are all dated 2024–2025; the 5kW log burner serves as a feature rather than a primary heat source.
Three bath/shower rooms, a kitchen-diner-living space across the back of the property, a courtyard rear garden, electric garage and off-street parking complete the offering. The property was sold once in January 2024 for £180,000 prior to the renovation; relisted in October 2025 at £600,000 and reduced to £549,950 in January 2026, bringing it within 0.3% of our AI valuation.
Within Eckington S21: tram into central Sheffield from Halfway (1.4 mi), regular services to Sheffield Midland from there, and the M1 J30 less than three miles north.

A fully renovated 4-bed Victorian detached, priced almost exactly on AI valuation after a January reduction. The location has no flood exposure, no Japanese knotweed signal, and no listed-building or conservation overlay. The two flags worth investigating are radon (intersects title - confirm whether BR211 protective measures were installed during the recent rebuild) and coal mining (CON29M Coal Authority search will be conclusive). Both are typical for the Coal Measures geology of South Yorkshire and are routinely managed at conveyancing.
Pricing looks fair: at £549,950 the asking is 0.3% under model and £274/ft² is an 8.7% premium to the area average - supported by the property's renovation, scale (203 m²) and electric garage, but worth probing in negotiation given Q1 2026 market softness.
