Set on a substantial plot in sought-after Henleaze (BS9), this extended 1930s semi offers four double bedrooms and over 100ft of private rear garden. The house retains period features — bay windows, original panelling and fireplaces — and provides a rare opportunity to create a contemporary family home while keeping character details. Good transport links, excellent broadband and low local crime add to the location appeal.
The property is in need of full modernisation: the kitchen and bathroom require complete replacement, and the house appears to have solid brick walls likely without cavity insulation. Services are mains gas with a boiler and radiators in place, but buyers should factor in updating and decorating throughout. The single-family layout includes three reception rooms, so there’s scope to reconfigure living space or extend (subject to planning).
The long rear garden is a major asset — extremely private and largely lawned with mature beds — and could suit families wanting outdoor space or give potential for a separate building plot, subject to obtaining planning consent. Practical points to note: driveway parking and a detached garage are available but access is narrow; council tax is described as expensive. Early viewing is recommended to appreciate the plot and refurbishment potential.
