Set on a generous corner plot in quiet Stoke Bishop, this 2/3-bedroom semi-detached house offers clear scope to create a comfortable family home. The layout includes a reception room, separate kitchen, ground-floor WC and a flexible ground-floor study/bedroom, with two further bedrooms and a family bathroom upstairs. Mature gardens to three aspects and off-street parking are strong practical assets for family living or letting.
The property requires cosmetic updating throughout and has been let for several years, so buyers should expect modernisation works. There is potential to extend to the side and rear (subject to planning), which would noticeably increase living space and value for either a growing family or a buy-to-let investor targeting professional tenants.
Important sale terms: the property will be sold at a live online auction with an extended (8-week) completion and a buyer’s premium of £1,800 (inc VAT) payable on exchange. Legal and property pack details should be reviewed before bidding. EPC rating D and council tax band are noted; services and structural details are supplied in the legal pack and have not been independently tested.
This is a realistic proposition for buyers who want location and outside space and are prepared to invest in updating. For families, the proximity to highly regarded schools and Durdham Downs adds daily convenience; for investors, a professional rental market appraisal suggests achievable rental income once refurbished.
