A substantial freehold corner building on Whitehall Road offered as a development opportunity with planning allowed on appeal for a 14-bedroom, 8-bath HMO (c.3,218 sq ft). The scheme includes two communal kitchens, a large reception area, four off‑street parking spaces and provision for bike/bin stores — giving clear scope for high-yield multi-let income (rental appraisal suggests c.£126k pa). The site sits within easy reach of Bristol city centre and local amenities, making it attractive to professional sharers or purpose-built HMO operators.
This is an auction lot, sold with vacant possession and an extended eight-week completion period. Buyers should note a compulsory buyer’s premium payable on exchange and that the sale process requires registration and deposit terms typical of auction purchases. The building dates from c.1930–49 with solid brick walls (no cavity insulation assumed) and double glazing installed prior to 2002; the fabric will likely need thermal and services upgrading during conversion.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, off‑street parking for four cars, prior approval for a ground-floor flat as an alternative use, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Important cautions: the property sits in an area with above-average crime, some retrofit work and possible insulation/energy upgrades will be required, and the HMO consent was granted on appeal after an earlier refusal — full planning details and drawings should be checked in the legal pack before bidding.
