Crookes Rent Prices in Sheffield 2026
Our Verdict
"Bougie"
With m² stats sitting at a median of £15/m², Crookes has officially transitioned into our BOUGIE category. The investment outlook remains rock solid because demand from young professionals never dips, even if the housing stock is mostly drafty Victorian terraces. It is expensive for what is essentially a suburb on a hill, but the lack of student noise compared to Broomhill makes the premium worth it.
The Vibe:Living here means mastering the handbrake turn on steep red-brick side streets and bracing against the wind on the high street. It is the natural territory for Hallamshire Hospital staff and postgrads who want a quieter life than Ecclesall Road but still need a decent pub. The 52 bus is the lifeblood of the area, connecting this hilltop ridge to the city centre every few minutes.
The median rent price in Crookes, Sheffield is £15 per m² per month, 12% below the Sheffield city average of £17/m². Based on 1 verified rental data points as of February 2026.
