A five-bedroom, freehold semi-detached property currently run as a student HMO and offered with no onward chain — a clear buy-to-let opportunity in a popular rental pocket of Filton. The current long-term tenants are leaving in August 2025, creating immediate vacant possession for re-letting, refurbishment or conversion back to a three-bedroom family home.
The house benefits from double glazing, gas central heating, a small front/back garden and quick access to local shops, eateries and good schools. Broadband speeds and mobile signal are strong, supporting tenant appeal for students and young professionals. The plot is modest and the overall internal size is compact at about 735 sq ft, so room layouts are efficient rather than generous.
Important practical points: the interior shows age and wear with dated kitchens and signs of dampiness in the kitchen area that need investigation and repair. The building dates from the late 1960s–1970s and is likely to need modernization throughout; there may be scope to extend (subject to planning). Crime levels in the area are above average — a factor for some buyers to weigh alongside strong rental demand.
For an investor this is a straightforward letting prospect in a rental-focused neighbourhood with nearby amenities and good schools. For a homeowner the property offers potential to reconfigure into a comfortable family house after updating and addressing the maintenance issues.
