Brimming with renovation potential, this is a golden opportunity for savvy investors. With an attractive 8% net rental yield, it's a chance that won't be around for long!
Property Oracle says ..
This one-bedroom property located on Southwood Drive in Bristol’s Avonmouth and Lawrence Weston area presents a mixed bag. The property’s location offers reasonable proximity to schools, including some with good Ofsted ratings, and several train stations providing access to the wider city. However, the area itself might not be considered amongst Bristol’s most desirable. The major drawback is the property’s condition. The provided photographs clearly show a property in need of extensive renovation. The interior is dated, with finishes requiring complete replacement in the kitchen and bathroom. Wallpaper is peeling, and overall, the property presents a tired and worn appearance. Furthermore, the lack of any significant land or garden further detracts from its appeal. The list price of £147,900 seems reasonable considering the need for refurbishment, but buyers should factor in substantial renovation costs. The property could represent a good investment opportunity for those willing to undertake a full renovation project, aiming to capitalize on potential appreciation once modernized. However, it is not a move-in ready property and requires a significant amount of work.
Therefore, we give this property 4 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
