3 bed semi-detached house for sale

21 Mackie Avenue, Filton BS34

A Project. A Blank Canvas. And the Chance to Create Something Of Your Own.



Let's be completely honest from the outset - 21 Mackie Avenue needs work. Quite a lot of it.

This is a three bedroom semi detached family home that requires a complete makeover and modernisation, including the heating system, kitchen, bathroom, flooring and garden. It isn't a home for someone looking to simply unpack their boxes and settle in.

But that isn't really who we're looking for.

The opportunity here is for the buyer who isn't frightened of a project Someone who can see beyond the dated appearance, put their own ideas into practice and ultimately create a home that looks and feels completely different from the one they bought.

The house itself provides a very good starting point. There are three bedrooms, useful family accommodation and, importantly, it's positioned within a cul-de-sac in an established family area of Filton.

Outside, there is a mature rear garden which could become a really attractive feature once some work has been carried out. The existing garage has certainly seen better days and will require consideration. It may be possible to remove it altogether, creating even more garden space, or alternatively replace it in the future...

And this is where the property's potential becomes particularly interesting. The buyer isn't simply taking on a house that needs decorating - they're getting a blank canvas where the major decisions are still theirs to make.

The location certainly helps. Filton is well established as a popular residential area, with a wide range of shops, schools, leisure facilities, transport links and major employers all within easy reach.

Most importantly, the price has been set with the condition of the property in mind. This isn't a case of paying top money and then discovering you've got a mountain of work ahead of you The intention is to offer the right buyer the opportunity to take on the work at a price that allows for the investment required.

So, if you're looking for a finished home, this probably isn't the one.

But if you're looking for a project, have the vision to see what it could become and aren't frightened of getting stuck in, 21 Mackie Avenue could be very interesting indeed
