Rare freehold plot next to Temple Island, 400m from Temple Meads eastern entrance..
0.57 acres (0.23 ha) city centre brownfield site
A rare freehold brownfield site in Bristol’s Temple Quarter, extending to approximately 0.57 acres (0.23 ha). The broadly rectangular parcel sits 400m from the new eastern entrance at Bristol Temple Meads and adjoins the Temple Island development, placing it at the heart of significant regeneration and commercial activity. Its existing surface of tarmac and concrete and secure gated access from Victoria Road make the site immediately usable for storage or interim commercial operations while redevelopment proposals are prepared.
This location suits developers and specialist investors targeting high-value student, co‑living or residential schemes, subject to planning consent. Proximity to the new Temple Quarter Enterprise campus and strong transport links make the site attractive for rental‑led or mixed‑use schemes. The site is offered with vacant possession and no buildings of note, simplifying disposal and enabling early demolition or construction work pending consents.
Material considerations: the site sits in a deprived area with a higher local crime rate, and current local amenity and social indicators should be factored into valuation and scheme design. Redevelopment will require planning permission; no consents are guaranteed. The site is currently owner‑occupied as a bottled gas sales yard and has a mix of concrete and tarmac surfaces, so remediation or re‑contouring costs may be needed depending on the proposed end use.
Expressions of interest are invited for the freehold interest on an unconditional or conditional basis. This is a strategic, city‑centre development plot for purchasers prepared to manage planning risk, site preparation and local-market sensitivities to realise higher‑value residential or specialist rental schemes.
