Location

This development is located in the traditional suburban town of Woodhouse. Only a 15-minute drive and 10-minute train journey from Sheffield city centre. Brockwood offers buyers the chance to own high specification property at an affordable price close to the ever-growing capital of South Yorkshire. As well as having all the typical local amenities on its doorstep, Brockwood is situated close to the popular Crystal Peaks Shopping Centre and Drakehouse retail park which attracts over 11 million visitors a year.

Those who prefer outdoor spaces to retail therapy are also well served with ample outdoor space to choose from. A mere 5-minute walk from the development lies the beautiful Shire Brook Valley Nature Reserve which includes trails, brooks, lakes and wildlife, perfect for exploring after a hard day at work. If this was not enough, in less than a 5-minute drive, residents can get lost in the even larger Rother Valley Country Park, which includes 4 large lakes, Aqua Park, camping and a golf course.

Ever since Covid-19 and lockdown that came with it, outdoor space has become increasingly important. People have realised how vital it is to either have their own outdoor space or be close to parks and country reserves. Research shows that nearly 50% of renters are seeking homes closer to outdoor gardens. A further 89% of these renters also wanted to exercise outdoors. Unfortunately, city centres do not offer the same standard of outdoor space that suburban towns do. As a result, the demand for property in Sheffield’s commuter belt has soared.

Ultimately, Brockwood offers residents a location with all the amenities they can expect from a large town: an extremely popular retail park and two nature reserves. It is easy to see why its surrounding areas have recently become so popular and why it will be a very strong investment for years to come.
