How the Park Hill redevelopment is providing a boost for Sheffield's property sector

The joint venture between Urban Splash and Places for People is reporting strong demand for Phase 2 of the Park Hill redevelopment.

A model of how Park Hill will look when it is fully developed has been created by David Riley, a professional model maker from Sheffield.

Guy Ackernley, commenting on behalf of the joint venture partners, said: “We have seen unprecedented sales for Phase 2 of Park Hill.

"In what could be described as the most unusual and potentially challenging period worldwide, and one that could well have adversely affected the housing market, we have sold an amazing 44 homes in five months.

"This is very encouraging and testament to the location, the area and to the quality of homes on offer. It is also exciting to see the Park Hill community growing."

Homes in Phase 2 will continue to be released over the coming months.

It is intended that new residents will be able to move into Phase 2 towards the end of next year. Phase 2 will also include 20,000 sq ft of mixed-use commercial space providing the opportunity for a variety of offices and workspaces - as well as a new café, restaurant and terrace.

Park Hill is Grade II listed and described as a "beautiful brutalist masterpiece".

Phase 1 has been completed with 260 homes, which are all fully occupied with businesses in 10,000 sq ft of commercial space.

More than 700 people now live and work at Park Hill.
