Kangaroo Works, S1

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

The locality of kangaroo works is definitely a positive. For me, I’m close to university, I’m close to friends, shops, local pubs and places we like to socialise. The location is right by local bus routes and tram lines so it’s easy to get in and out of the city without walking miles once you get off the bus/tram. Having parking available nearby is also great for when friends and family visit.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Very well. I’m newly moved in, so I’m yet to come across any major issues. But I’m confident from what I have experienced, if I didn’t encounter any issues, they would be resolved quickly and to a good standard.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

If anything, knowing exactly where my apartment would be located and going to see that (which is appreciate is difficult when you already have tenants living there). No issues with where I’m located but maybe this would be something I’d like to have seen beforehand.

One of the biggest advantages of living at Kangaroo Works is its fantastic location. The building is strategically situated in the heart of Sheffield, with a bus stop directly opposite and the city centre just a five-minute walk away. This makes commuting, shopping, dining and getting around Sheffield incredibly convenient. Everything feels easily accessible, whether you’re heading into town, catching public transport or exploring the surrounding area. The location offers a great balance of convenience and city living, and it’s honestly one of my favourite things about living here.

I wish I’d known just how much of a community Kangaroo Works would feel like! It’s more than just a modern apartment building. The resident events are a lovely opportunity to meet neighbours and connect with people, and the staff genuinely contribute to making it feel welcoming. My advice to anyone moving in would be to take advantage of the resident events, make use of the gym and enjoy the incredibly convenient location. Having the city centre within walking distance and public transport directly opposite makes everyday life so much easier. After almost three years, I can confidently say that choosing Kangaroo Works was a great decision for me.
