Park Hill, Sheffield
Park Hill is like no other place. Iconic is an overused term, but it really does apply to Park Hill. The Grade II* Listed Park Hill (the largest Listed structure in Europe) is a landmark on the Sheffield skyline atop one of the city's seven hills immediately to the east of the mainline railway station and city centre. It already has character and we want to create a world class landscape, inside and outside its walls.
Park Hill has amazingly spacious one, two & three bedroom, duplex, dual aspect apartments with floor to ceiling glazing allowing the best city views Sheffield has to offer. Architects Hawkins-Brown working with Studio Egret West have given special consideration to the façade because of the significance of it looming over the city. Colourful anodised aluminium panels replicate the coloured brick tones of the original façade and emphasise the modular structure.
The team are working to bring love, life and pride back to this iconic project and make it a genuinely vibrant and sustainable community for the 21st Century. Homes are available to buy now at Park Hill and our first residents are now settled into their new homes.
Our commercial team are working to bring in wonderful neighbours downstairs too. A real mix in the ingredients of a proper place for residents and visitors alike: a 'high street' of local services - butchers, newsagents, greengrocers, chippy- a doctor's and dentist's, a new home for the fantastic Grace Owen children's nursery, some great bars, pubs and cafes to make the most of the great views over the city, a village hall and a village green complete with oak tree, plus new workspace for businesses, artists or students, as well as dedicated secure provision for carparking.
Stunning space, natural light
We think these apartments are truly amazing. They're generous in size, unusually they're dual aspect so you can see what's going on at the other side of the building and, when there's a breeze, it can make its way through from one side to the other to freshen you up, or cool you down.
Speak to some of the original residents who moved into here in 1961 you'll find they loved it then, and for those who have been here from the start, they still love it now.
We think we've taken the best bits - we've shown respect where we think respect is due and we've injected a strong and assertive sense of modernity where we can - which makes these apartments not only fit for purpose but fit for a King?.or a Queen, even.
Wherever possible we've tried to celebrate a bit of the past - leaving some of the old concrete exposed in whatever condition we find it, just to remind you that you're part of the past as well as part of the future.
Most apartments are designed over two floors so you always have an upstairs, downstairs.
What's your type?
The plan of the building is very clever. The flats are clustered around four doors on the street in the sky. Two of those doors go in and up, two go in and down. Of the four flats in a cluster, two are two storey whilst the others have stairs that take you down into your space.
The flanks of the building, 'cranked' to make the best of the sunshine and wrap around an internal garden. The lower floors of the building are being turned into commercial units to make bars and shops and offices.
Location
You couldn't be closer to the centre of the action than this - the Showroom, the Crucible, Sheffield Hallam University, Sheffield Station, the tram, you literally couldn't cram much more onto your doorstep.
And on the off chance you get fed up with Sheffield, Leeds is 40 minutes away and Manchester's 50.
Not only that but the delight of the Derbyshire Peak District is an essential part of Sheffield life - climbing, walking, biking, running and drinking the odd pint of real beer in a proper country pub.
