Description

This three-bedroom semi-detached house, located in the sought-after Fishponds area, offers a unique chance for investors or DIY enthusiasts looking to transform a property steeped in history, having been owned by the same family for nearly a century. With potential for improvement and extension (pending planning approvals), this home is an ideal project for those wanting to add value. Approaching the property, you're greeted by a front garden that leads to an inviting entrance hallway. The spacious living room features a delightful bay window that floods the space with light, while the separate dining room at the rear connects seamlessly to the garden through French doors—perfect for enhancing indoor-outdoor living. The galley-style kitchen on the left side is in need of modernisation, representing an opportunity to redesign according to personal taste. Additionally, a small rear extension houses a downstairs WC and utility area, which could be reimagined for better functionality. Upstairs, you'll find two double bedrooms and a single bedroom that could serve various needs such as a child's room or office. A generously sized family bathroom is also present, and there's loft access where other homes in the area have successfully converted their attics into additional bedrooms via dormer extensions—providing exciting expansion possibilities subject to consent. The exterior boasts a substantial rear garden, predominantly laid to lawn and bordered by mature shrubs, ensuring privacy while offering scope for landscaping or gardening projects. With close proximity to Fishponds High Street's array of shops and amenities, well-rated schools nearby, and excellent transport links into Bristol city centre alongside green spaces like Oldbury Court Estate, this property embodies considerable renovation potential in a vibrant community.
