Cotham is a popular area of Bristol, known for its Victorian architecture, independent shops, and proximity to good schools and transport links. The property’s location on Arley Hill places it within easy reach of Montpelier train station (0.48km) and several highly-rated schools including Montpelier High School (Outstanding Ofsted rating, 0.20km) and The Dolphin School (Good Ofsted rating, 0.32km). This contributes to a high desirability and potential for rental income.

Based on the provided photographs, the property appears to be in good condition. The interior is well-maintained and presented, with updated fixtures and fittings in the kitchen and bathroom. There is evidence of some original features, such as the fireplaces and high ceilings, which are characteristic of the area. While there is no major visible damage or obvious need for renovation, a professional survey would be recommended to confirm the condition of the property’s structure and systems.

The property benefits from a small rear garden, which is a valuable asset in a densely populated urban area like Cotham. Although the plot size is listed as 0.00 sqft, the images show a paved patio area and some planting, offering some outdoor space. This is likely a relatively small garden, but still provides a desirable amenity.

The list price of £400,000 is lower than the average price for the area (£533,726), however, it is important to consider the size of the property. At 784.69 sqft, it is significantly smaller than the average house in the area (1,089 sqft). The average price per sqft in the area is £490. While the property’s price per sqft is higher than the average, the smaller size and lack of significant additional features may justify the lower list price compared to larger properties in the area. Nearby comparable properties support this, with prices ranging from £290,000 to £460,000. A detailed comparison with similar properties in terms of size, condition, and features would be necessary for a complete price analysis.

Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
