2 bed 2nd floor furnished apartment in desirable Brooklyn Works, located near bus & tram routes; short walk from city centre. Available from 06/07/2014, with river view, gym & secure allocated parking.

Description

Available from 6th July 2014, this 2 bedroom furnished apartment in desirable Brooklyn Works is located on the top (second) floor with a great view of the river and its resident wildlife. Brooklyn Works was one of the original factories converted to city living flats and is well known in Kelham Island for having a good sense of community.

The property is particularly well-suited to university staff or similar professionals.

Brooklyn Works is brilliantly located, being 2 mins from the Shalesmoor tram stop (Blue and Yellow tram routes); near the bus routes serving the north of Sheffield (e.g. 11, 12, 14, 17, 53, 57, 57A, 58, 77 & 78); and right by the inner ring road for easy access to the Parkway and M1 by car.

Getting to town on foot only takes 15 mins via West Bar to Campo Lane behind the Cathedral near the centre of town, or you have a choice of buses and trams.

The property comprises:

Entrance via communal staircase with secure time-locked door on ground floor. From the landing, enter the property into a hallway with large storage cupboard including shelving and coat hooks. Door buzzer and intercom system for allowing access to the ground floor also located here.

Open plan living room with well-maintained wood laminate floor, spacious and comfortable corner sofa, wall cupboards, shelving, table and dining chairs provided, with a balcony overlooking the River Don as it flows over Kelham weir. This leads round into the kitchen with stainless steel gas hob and electric fan assisted oven, fridge with icebox, microwave, dishwasher and washer-dryer.

Bedroom One is light and airy with double bed, wardrobe, cupboard and shoe storage.

Bedroom Two is currently being used as a study with desk, filing drawers, shelving and a white board provided.

Bathroom with heated towel rail, combined bath with shower and mosaic and mirror tiles.

Gas central heating and combi boiler which heats the water as you use it. Good insulation, double glazing and effective heating easily keeps the place toasty all winter without breaking the bank. The EPC is available upon request.

An allocated covered parking space within the secure courtyard is included in the rent, as is use of the locked bike store next door in Cornish Place. As a tenant of Brooklyn Works, you are also eligible to use the on-site gym in neighbouring Cornish Place for no extra charge. Use of the guest suites is a further privilege of living here - these have a small booking fee.

The courtyard has a well-used grassy communal area with picnic table, barbeque and original brick chimney, which is put to use each Christmas to toast chestnuts at the annual festive party!

The flat is being offered at £695 pcm including use of the gym and guest suites, secure covered parking space and superb river view! It is a Standard Assured Shorthold Tenancy lease with one & a half month's rent up front as deposit to be held in the Government Deposit Protection Scheme.
