Industrial roots remain strong in Sheffield
Sheffield was established in the early 1900s as people moved to the area for jobs at the neighboring Sheffield Steel plant. While that business has since closed, the neighborhood still has an industrial presence, with trucking facilities and warehouses on its outskirts. Aside from those employers, residents are close to a wide range of grocery stores and Latin restaurants. The neighborhood’s location about 5 miles east of downtown Kansas City, combined with relatively affordable homes, adds to its appeal.
What buyers can expect in Sheffield
Sheffield mostly has Craftsman-style bungalows and American Foursquares from the early 20th century along its gridded streets. “A lot of homes need to be renovated, but the prices are lower, so it’s popular for first-time buyers,” says Mackaylee Beach, a broker with USREEB Realty Pros who has sold several homes in the neighborhood. The median sale price here is about $110,000, which is significantly less than Kansas City’s median of around $280,000. Prices usually range from $50,000 to the upper $100,000s, depending on the home’s size and condition.
