Osborne Road, Sheffield, South Yorkshire, S11

This beautiful, spacious and characterful 2 bedroom apartment in a vibrant Sheffield cohousing community is located on the first and second floors of Brincliffe House, a Victorian villa in Nether Edge, Sheffield, that was developed in 2018 and converted into flats as part of On the Brink Cohousing Community.

Located in the original part of the building, the apartment is 115 sq.m. with the kitchen, bathroom, and both bedrooms on one level and the living room on another. The living room is spacious and is a versatile space, being used as a combined living/work space by the current occupant. It has large windows offering tree-filled views. The other rooms are in the converted attic space so benefit from wide-ranging views, sloping ceilings, original beams, and other characterful features.

Nether Edge is a popular residential area with plenty of facilities and good public transport links to central Sheffield. It is one of the many interesting and leafy areas of Sheffield, with a short drive or walk up Porter Brook through Endcliffe Park to the Peak District.

On The Brink is a multi-generational cohousing community based on companionship, ecological awareness, and mutual respect. Residents of On The Brink have their own individual homes as well as sharing communal space for cooking, eating, gardening, meeting, relaxing, and having fun together. The buildings of the cohousing community sit within 1.5 acres of grounds including some wild land, a vegetable garden, a large enclosed garden, and some impressive and unusual trees. In early 2021 the second phase of the project was completed, which led to the construction of several new properties on site. In total there are now 26 members, from primary school age to mid-70s. Because of the nature of cohousing, prospective buyers will be required to apply for and be accepted for membership of On the Brink Cohousing Community. This involves filling in a questionnaire and visiting On the Brink and getting to know the other members, in order for the community to determine whether someone is a good fit.
