Set within the walls of Loxley House, a striking Grade II listed Georgian mansion rebuilt in 1826 for the Payne family, this beautifully presented four bedroom town house occupies a rare position within one of Sheffield's most distinctive conversions. Arranged over four floors and extending to some 1,547 sq ft, the property blends the scale and character of its historic shell with a thoughtfully updated interior and well designed rear garden.
Accommodation
The ground floor opens into the open plan kitchen diner, a real feature of the home: a barrel-vaulted, painted ceiling rises above sleek wood-veneer units and quartz worktops arranged in a spacious U-shape, with an arched stable door and a further arched window flooding the room with light and framing views over the courtyard. A central hallway provides access to a W.C, leading through to a generous lounge with high ceilings and double doors leading to a rear patio, perfect for alfresco dining.
A half-landing on the first floor provides a handy office space, before the staircase continues up to the second floor, where two of the four bedrooms are found alongside the family bathroom, smartly tiled with slate slips, with a walk-in shower and freestanding bath.
The third floor is home to a large bedroom with space for multiple pieces of furniture and benefits from an ensuite shower room. A fourth bedroom completes this floor, currently arranged as a versatile home gym with exposed beams and views of the rear garden and woodland. Each floor ideal for a growing family or those wanting flexible space for guests, working from home, or hobbies.
Outside
Loxley House sits within beautifully maintained communal grounds, approached via a long, sweeping driveway that curves around mature woodland to the imposing stone façade. To the rear, the property benefits from its own private, flagged courtyard garden enclosed by the original stone walls, offering a lovely spot for alfresco dining. Beyond this, a further path leads through well-stocked borders to a rear gate which leads to mature woodland. Residents also share the wider grounds and gardens that surround this historic building, along with ample parking.
Loxley
Loxley House stands in an elevated, semi-rural position off Ben Lane, on the fringe of the Loxley Valley and looking out towards Stannington and the wooded slopes beyond – a setting that has long been prized, with the original house on this site dating back to 1795. The wider Loxley area is steeped in local legend as the reputed birthplace of Robin Hood, and today offers a peaceful, green escape while remaining within easy reach of Hillsborough, Malin Bridge and the tram network into Sheffield city centre. The surrounding countryside, including Loxley Common and the Rivelin and Loxley valleys, provides superb walking and cycling straight from the doorstep, while a good range of everyday shops, schools and amenities can be found nearby in Stannington and Hillsborough. It's a rare opportunity to own a genuine slice of Sheffield's architectural history, in a location that feels a world away from the city while remaining wonderfully well connected.
