1 bed 1 bath Land
315m² freehold redevelopment plot with planning for replacement bungalow, near Southmead Hospital..
Full planning granted for replacement dwelling (ref: 25/11515/F).
A rare development plot in Horfield with full planning (ref: 25/11515/F) to replace the existing prefab bungalow. The site extends to about 315m² and includes a driveway with off‑street parking, making it straightforward to deliver the consented replacement dwelling. Proximity to Southmead Hospital and recent local redevelopment support demand from builders, investors and owner‑occupiers seeking a single new house in a well‑connected city suburb.
The existing building is a 1960s prefabricated bungalow with assumed system walls and no insulation; energy performance is low (EPC G) and heating is electric storage heaters. These factors make demolition or substantial retrofit likely; the granted planning reduces one execution risk, but buyers should note the previous consent for two bungalows has lapsed and alternative schemes would need re‑submission and approval.
This lot will be sold at auction on 16 October 2025. Purchasers must budget for the buyer’s premium and preliminary deposit, and allow for auction timescales. The area shows signs of uplift but also records higher local crime and relative deprivation, which may affect end‑user rental demand or resale values. Legal and technical due diligence is recommended before bidding.
Overall this is a straightforward, freehold redevelopment opportunity on a decent‑sized corner plot in a commuter area. It suits small builders, developers or investors prepared to work with the constraints of the existing structure, energy upgrades and the local market context.
