5 bed semi-detached house for sale

Bocking Lane, Beauchief, Sheffield S8

A substantial family home with a woodland backdrop & direct access to the Sheffield round walk

This extended five-bedroom semi-detached home offers a blend of space, flexibility and setting. Backing directly onto mature woodland, the property enjoys a level of privacy and connection to nature that is rarely found so close to the city, with the Sheffield Round Walk running through the woodland at the rear.

For those unfamiliar, the Sheffield Round Walk is a celebrated 15-mile circular walking route that loops around the city, linking Sheffield’s finest green spaces, ancient woodland and open countryside. Having access via the woodland behind the house means scenic walks, dog routes and family adventures quite literally begin at the end of the garden.

Internally, the home provides over 1,500 sq ft of accommodation arranged across a highly versatile layout that lends itself to a wide range of lifestyles. The current configuration works superbly for family living, but there is also clear potential to adapt or reconfigure spaces with ease, whether that’s creating open-plan living, additional home-working areas, a playroom, or more defined reception rooms.

A front porch and central hallway lead into the kitchen/diner at the front of the house, a bright and practical space perfect for family meals and entertaining. To the rear, the spacious living room/family room opens onto the garden via sliding doors, creating a seamless flow between indoor and outdoor living and offering uninterrupted views over the private woodland beyond. The ground floor also benefits from a downstairs WC, useful storage and integral garage, while the layout remains highly adaptable to suit a variety of lifestyles.

Upstairs, five bedrooms provide excellent options for family life, guests or home working, alongside a family bathroom and separate WC.

Externally, the property occupies a generous plot. A large block-paved driveway provides off-road parking for multiple vehicles, while the rear garden is a true highlight, enclosed, private and backing directly onto woodland. Predominantly laid to lawn with established planting and a paved seating area, it offers a peaceful setting that changes beautifully with the seasons.

Ideally placed for highly regarded schools, local shops and amenities, as well as Millhouses Park, Ecclesall Woods and Beauchief Golf Club. Dore Train Station, Sheffield city centre, hospitals, universities and the Peak District National Park are all easily accessible.

Homes that combine this level of space, adaptability and setting, with immediate access to Sheffield’s most iconic walking route, are increasingly rare. An internal viewing is essential to appreciate both the accommodation and the lifestyle this home offers.
