Summary - 6, SHAFTESBURY AVENUE, BRISTOL BS6 5LX
3 bed 1 bath House
Characterful three-bed terrace with garden and extension potential near Gloucester Road.
Three bedrooms with two reception rooms and circa 50ft rear garden
Set on a popular Montpelier street, this three-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace offers comfortable family living with scope to personalise. The ground floor has two reception rooms and a naturally bright kitchen, while upstairs provides three bedrooms and a single family bathroom. The property sits on a circa 50ft mature rear garden ideal for children and outdoor entertaining.
The house is well placed for commuters — easy access to the M32 and city centre, plus walking distance to Gloucester Road’s independent shops and local amenities. Several well-regarded primary and secondary schools are nearby, making this a practical choice for families wanting an urban neighbourhood with strong transport links.
There is clear potential to improve and extend (subject to planning approvals). The Victorian features — bay window, high ceilings and fireplaces — provide character to retain, while the layout and garden offer room for contemporary reconfiguration or a rear extension to increase living space and value.
Buyers should note material drawbacks candidly: the property dates from before 1900 with solid brick walls likely lacking cavity insulation, glazing install dates are unknown, and there is only one bathroom. The area records higher crime levels and significant deprivation indicators, so prospective purchasers should factor in refurbishment costs, security considerations and consult local planning guidance before committing.
