1950s semi with large garden and driveway — auction sale, needs updating.
South‑west facing sizeable rear garden
A solid three-bedroom, post‑war semi on a decent plot in Lockleaze, offered with vacant possession via auction. The house has a sizeable south‑west facing rear garden, driveway parking and generous utility/storage space — features that suit first-time buyers seeking outside space and room to grow. The property is freehold with two bathrooms and about 965 sq ft of accommodation across two storeys.
The interior is dated and will benefit from updating; think cosmetic works, modern kitchen and possible heating or electrics checks. That condition presents an opportunity to add value but also means budget for refurbishment and any recommended remedial works. Broadband and mobile signals are excellent and the area is well served by local schools and public transport, including a bus stop close to the door and the new Ashley Down station within reasonable distance.
Buyers must note this sale is by the Modern Method of Auction and completion is expected within 56 days. The winning bidder will pay a non‑refundable Reservation Fee (4.5% of the purchase price, minimum £6,600) and a Buyer Information Pack fee. The immediate area has high crime statistics and the neighbourhood shows signs of deprivation; factor in security and community considerations alongside the home's potential.
For a purchaser prepared to undertake improvements, this property offers space, convenient connections to central Bristol and nearby green spaces (Stoke Park, Purdown). It will suit a first‑time buyer or investor who wants a straightforward project with quick completion and long‑term upside from renovation and strong local rental demand.
