Practical starter home with garage, good transport links and scope to modernise.
Freehold three-bedroom semi-detached house with garage
This three-bedroom semi-detached home on Wordsworth Road offers an accessible first step on the property ladder with practical space and strong transport links. The house is freehold, double-glazed, gas-heated with a boiler and radiators, and sits on a decent plot that includes a garage — useful for parking or storage.
Internally there’s a comfortable living room, an enlarged galley kitchen and three well-proportioned bedrooms upstairs. The property presents sensible scope for improvement: the kitchen tiles and finishes are dated and would benefit from modernisation, while the single bathroom serves all three bedrooms. The building dates from the 1950s–60s and has filled cavity walls, so structural basics are typical of the era.
Location is a genuine strength for commuters and first-time buyers. The house lies on a main bus route with direct services into Bristol city centre and is positioned between Filton Abbey Wood and Ashley Down stations. Nearby employers (Southmead Hospital, MOD Abbey Wood, aerospace firms) and several good-rated primary and secondary schools add practical appeal.
Be realistic about the neighbourhood context: the wider area is classified as hard-pressed with higher deprivation levels, and local crime is around average. For buyers prepared to invest a little to update the kitchen and modernise cosmetic finishes, this property offers good value, convenient connectivity and immediate occupancy as a starter home or investment let.
