Soho Yard, S3

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

It is perfectly situated with Kelham island only about a 2 min walk with lots of amazing bars and restaurants. Public transport or trains is just little hop and a skip which is perfect for getting to anywhere in the UK! The area itself feels very homely and not noisy at all!

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

The shops restaurants and bars in the local area are plenty and diverse enough that you will find what you need. The transport links are great as there are plenty of busses that pass through and it’s a short walk to the train station. The traffic noise isn’t too bad but once the windows are shut you can barely hear anything it’s lovely.

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

They were prompt and were able to solve our issues with nothing bad to say.

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

The amount of flies in the area, we love having the windows and the balcony open but in the day there are a lot of flies that like to come in

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

The area is really close to a lot of local amenities, with good transport links, bars, and open spaces. There is the occasional event of anti-social behaviour, usually over by the nearby Tesco but this generally infrequent and just a typical city occurrence. The area around soho yard is very safe and pleasant to walk your dog, even later at night.

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

There has been minimum issues, and where there have been, these are quickly resolved.

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

The area is amazing! We haven’t been to Sheffield much before to know what areas are best but we have definitely fallen lucky with Soho Yard! It’s a very short walk to Kelham, which has lots of bars, restaurants and open spaces to enjoy. We love the friendly and welcoming feel of the area! Transport links are really accessible too, with the train station being a 10-15 minute walk away and a free bus right outside into the city centre! Parking is available at an extra cost.

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

We haven’t experienced any issues but feel confident that they would be quickly resolved with the team.

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

There is nothing we wish we knew that didn’t already! Just how many nice places there are right on our doorstep.

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

Overall the quality of restaurant, bars, shops is good. The parking is limited but the property has been able to find a deal for its residents. As a bad aspect, I’d say there are no parks or green areas close by.

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

Quick response, generous and considerate to our schedules.
