Our Verdict

"Bougie"

At a median of £3220/m², Crookes firmly earns its BOUGIE status, though you are often paying for the S10 postcode rather than internal square footage. Our neighborhood analysis suggests that while House Prices are steep, the area avoids the 'gentrification trap' because it has been consistently desirable for decades. The investment outlook remains stable, but buyers should brace for the reality of drafty Victorian builds and the permanent struggle for a kerbside parking spot.

The Vibe:Expect calf-shredding inclines and panoramic views over the Peak District from almost every stone-fronted terrace. It is populated by academics, hospital staff, and people who outgrew Ecclesall Road but still want a decent pub within walking distance. The 52 bus is the local lifeline, connecting this high-altitude hub to the city every few minutes.

The median property price in Crookes, Sheffield is £3,220 per m², 1% above the Sheffield city average of £3185/m². Based on 1 verified sale data points as of February 2026.
