Description

The accommodation is stated as 597 sq ft and includes an entrance hall, kitchen, reception room and double bedroom, with a large roof terrace accessed from the reception room. The terrace is described as having views across South Bristol. The flat is offered with vacant possession and the listing identifies scope for cosmetic updating. The kitchen has fitted wall and base units, a gas hob with electric cooker, and space for laundry appliances. The bedroom has fitted wardrobes and a shower area, while a separate cloakroom contains a WC and wash basin. The listing states that a new 999-year lease will be granted, with management fees of £600 per year, council tax band C and an EPC rating of C. Buyers should review the legal pack and confirm the lease and building details before bidding.

Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £195,000, this 597 sq ft penthouse is priced at £327/sq ft, around 36% below the local average—a strong entry point for a buyer looking to add value. The bright reception and spacious-looking bedroom are clean and usable, while the fitted kitchen appears maintained; the dated carpets and cloakroom finishes leave room for a light cosmetic refresh rather than a major overhaul.

The standout feature is the large roof terrace, with views over South Bristol, alongside the period-building setting in Clifton Village. The terrace and roof waterproofing cannot be confirmed from the photographs, so those are worth checking as part of due diligence. This is being sold by auction at a guide price; bidding can take the hammer above the guide, so the eventual price may not stay this cheap.

Key opportunities

  • Acquire below the local £/sq ft average and refresh the dated carpets and cloakroom finishes to suit an owner-occupier or rental market.
  • Make the roof terrace the defining feature: its paved area, artificial-grass strip and views offer valuable outdoor space.
  • Build on the bright reception, spacious-looking bedroom and maintained fitted kitchen without needing a substantial interior programme.

Key risks

  • The roof and terrace waterproofing condition cannot be confirmed from the photographs; inspect and establish any maintenance history.
