This three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Kingswood, Bristol, presents a mixed bag. The property’s location offers several advantages. It’s relatively close to well-regarded primary schools like Beacon Rise Primary, which is rated ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted. Several other schools are within a reasonable distance. Commuting may necessitate a short journey to access major train stations, but access to the Great Western Railway line is relatively convenient.

However, the property’s condition is a significant drawback. The interior photographs reveal dated fixtures and fittings, particularly in the kitchen and bathroom, which will require substantial renovation. Several rooms exhibit worn finishes and carpeting, necessitating upgrading. While seemingly structurally sound, the overall state of the property suggests the need for extensive refurbishment before it could be considered move-in ready. The presence of a garage and a small garden with two greenhouses are positive elements, though the garden appears overgrown and in need of attention.

Pricing is challenging to assess accurately due to the lack of precise plot size information in both the initial property listing and the surrounding comparative data. However, based on similar properties in the area, the asking price appears to be on the higher end, considering the condition and need for extensive renovation. Potential buyers should factor in significant renovation costs into their budget and conduct a thorough survey before committing to a purchase. Overall, the property presents an opportunity for someone willing to undertake a significant renovation project and is suitable for buyers seeking potential future value rather than immediate move-in-ready comfort.

Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
