Summary - 8 TIMSBURY ROAD BRISTOL BS3 5JQ
3 bed 2 bath Terraced
Short-completion auction lot with garden, parking and clear rental potential.
Freehold mid-terraced house, approx. 734 sq ft
A straightforward three-bedroom mid-terraced house in Bedminster offered for sale by online auction. The property extends to approximately 734 sq ft over two floors, comes with an enclosed rear garden, off-street parking and is sold with vacant possession — making it suitable for an investor or buyer ready to refurbish.
The home has been used as a rental and requires basic updating throughout: cosmetic refurbishment, likely kitchen/bathroom modernisation and some remedial works to bring standards up for the professional rental market or owner-occupation. Services are mains gas with a boiler and radiators; glazing is double glazed though install date is unknown and cavity walls are assumed uninsulated.
Key selling points are location and rental potential — a recent independent letting appraisal suggests achievable rents around £1,500–£1,600pcm — and the property’s freehold tenure. Important purchase considerations: the sale is at auction, a buyer’s premium (£1,800 inc VAT) applies, registration requires a security deposit to bid, and completion is on an extended eight-week timetable.
This is a value-add opportunity for a cash or auction-finance buyer who accepts straightforward renovation work in exchange for a reasonably priced property in a popular BS3 neighbourhood. The immediate area is mixed; social renting and local deprivation indicators suggest purchasers should factor in local market dynamics when considering refurbishment or lettings.
