This three-bedroom apartment on Eastmead Lane, Stoke Bishop, Bristol, presents a mixed bag for potential buyers. Situated in a highly sought-after area of Bristol known for its good schools (Stoke Bishop Church of England Primary School is within walking distance), green spaces (proximity to Durdham Downs) and convenient location, the location is strong. Transport links via bus routes seem adequate although proximity to railway stations would need to be verified. However, the property’s condition requires attention. The provided images clearly illustrate a property that needs to be updated. Carpets, fixtures, and fittings throughout look old and in need of replacement. The kitchen and bathroom are particularly dated. A full renovation budget needs to be factored into any offer. The apartment does benefit from access to communal gardens and the inclusion of a garage which will be viewed favourably by most buyers. The list price of £335,000 might appear attractive to those willing to renovate, but the extent of the modernisation work required should be carefully considered. Overall, this property offers a solid investment opportunity in a premium Bristol neighbourhood, but potential buyers need to budget for substantial renovation costs to bring the property up to modern standards.

Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
