Waverley, Rotherham: A Complete Area Guide for Buyers
A walk by the lakes after work, coffee close to home and somewhere you can picture putting down roots: there’s plenty to love about…
Introducing Copper Street, Sky-House’s latest residential development of modern, sustainable homes to the historic heart of ‘Little Chicago’. This regeneration project is set to breathe new life into the Shalesmoor and Furnace Hill District, building upon the character of the neighbouring areas of Kelham Island and Sheffield city centre.
The upcoming community will feature 14 contemporary two- and three-bedroom family homes, alongside 35 one- and two-bedroom apartments across two impressive residential buildings. The local area will benefit from attractive communal spaces, commercial units and sustainable design that sits at the core of each Sky-House home.
At Copper Street, sustainability has been at the forefront of our homes from the very start. Each home follows a fabric-first approach, reducing heat loss through highly insulated building materials with integrated renewable technologies to provide a comfortable, energy-efficient home.
Completely gas-free, each property incorporates low-carbon technology including an MHVR system and PV solar panels. Combined with contemporary architectural design, our sustainable living integrations are elegantly understated and impactful, reducing running costs throughout the year and supporting healthier, greener lifestyles.
Partnering with Placefirst, Copper Street is a unique development with purposefully built-to-rent homes. Unlike traditional rental properties, Copper Street will be professionally managed and owned by long-term investors rather than individual landlords, providing residents with high-quality accommodation designed specifically for the rental market.
This collaboration allows Sky-House and Placefirst to offer beautiful homes with ongoing support and a strong sense of community, making Copper Street an attractive choice for those looking to rent in one of Sheffield’s most distinctive and fastest-growing neighbourhoods.
Copper Street is part of a larger regeneration project in the area of Shalesmoor and Furnace Hill, branching the industrial heritage of the former brownfield site even further, connecting Copper Street to the local surroundings.
Life at Copper Street means having some of Sheffield’s most popular destinations on your doorstep, with the trendy Kelham Island brimming with independent restaurants, cafes, bars and museums just a short walk away. The addition of commercial units brings forth creative businesses and local favourites, developing into a mixed-use community that will shape the very future of Sheffield city centre.
