Summary - 5 FRANKLYN STREET BRISTOL BS2 9LA
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Characterful two-bedroom Victorian terrace with garden and renovation potential, chain-free.
Two double bedrooms and bay-fronted reception room
A characterful two-bedroom Victorian terraced house just moments from Cabot Circus, Montpelier and Stokes Croft. The ground floor offers two reception rooms, including a bay-fronted sitting room, plus a separate kitchen and a private rear garden. The house totals about 1,005 sq ft and is offered chain-free on a freehold title.
The property retains period features and high ceilings, giving scope to create a stylish city home. There is extension potential to the rear (subject to planning permission, STPP) and good transport links — Temple Meads is walkable and the M32 is easily accessible. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent.
Practical realities are clear: the house needs renovation and some updating throughout, walls are solid brick with no fitted insulation assumed, and the plot is small. The local area has very high crime and significant deprivation, which may affect resale and living experience. Buyers should budget for refurbishment and possible planning costs.
This will suit a buyer comfortable with a renovation project — a first-time buyer seeking long-term value, a creative homeowner wanting period character, or an investor targeting rental demand from the nearby university and city centre. Council tax is very cheap, and the property’s position close to shops, cafés and green spaces is a strong local benefit.
