THE PROPERTY

AN UNUSUAL 2 BEDROOM HOUSE

This is a most exciting Victorian “Gothic” style former ecclesiastical building of immense charm and character, constructed as part of All Saints Parish Hall and subsequently used as a Sacristy following damage to the original church in World War II. The main Hall was converted into flats and the Sacristy was converted into this charming Mews style cottage with the quirky charm of its interesting history creating a delightful home of character. The flats and Cloisters are all part of the same Management Company, Cloisters does have its own private entrance and spacious accommodation arranged over two floors with spacious landing and large reception room on the ground floor (1,156 sq ft).
There is an array of original ecclesiastical features as well as a small courtyard and allocated off street parking accessed via a private path approximately 100m from the property.
Leasehold - residue of 999 years - subject to management conditions of Garden Court - Refer to online legal pack.

EXTENDED COMPLETION

Completion is set for 8 weeks or earlier by mutual consent.

LOCATION

Situated between Whiteladies Road and Clifton Village in Alma Vale Road with its eclectic range of individual shops. The Business, Educational, Medical, Cultural and Leisure Facilities of the City Centre are within one and a half miles.The property is equally close to Durdham Downs with its acres of open land and woodland bounded on the south western side by the spectacular Avon Gorge with the historic Clifton Suspension Bridge providing a unique crossing to North Somerset.

THE OPPORTUNITY

The property would make a fine home in this highly sought after area and now requires complete updating but there is scope for a truly special property in this highly sought after location.

RESALE VALUES

Calum Melhuish, Residential Sales Manager says: “ This is a unique property with scope for a truly special home that once renovated would have a resale value in excess of £450,000"

RENTAL APPRAISAL

This magnificent property would create a lovely property. There is potential if you obtained the consent to convert into a three bed property by moving the kitchen into the reception room. The property needs fully renovating internally and you could remove the cupboards upstairs to make a much larger bathroom and create a separate shower enclosure. With some thought the large landing upstairs could be turned into a snug space or even an office. If converted into a three bed property rental income would be £1500.00 However if modernised and rented to a professional family or couple rent in region of £1750 per month (£21000 p/a)

BUYER'S PREMIUM

Please be aware all purchasers are subject to a £750 + VAT buyer's premium which is ALWAYS payable upon exchange of contracts whether the sale is concluded before, during or after the auction date.

GUIDE PRICE

An indication of the seller's current minimum acceptable price at auction. The guide price or range of guide prices is given to assist consumers in deciding whether or not to pursue a purchase. It is usual, but not always the case, that a provisional reserve range is agreed between the seller and the auctioneer at the start of marketing. As the reserve is not fixed at this stage and can be adjusted by the seller at any time up to the day of the auction in the light of interest shown during the marketing period, a guide price is issued. This guide price can be shown in the form of a minimum and maximum price range within which an acceptable sale price (reserve) would fall, or as a single price figure within 10% of which the minimum acceptable price (reserve) would fall. A guide price is different to a reserve price (see separate definition). Both the guide price and the reserve price can be subject to change up to and including the day of the auction.

RESERVE PRICE

The seller's minimum acceptable price at auction and the figure below which the auctioneer cannot sell. The reserve price is not disclosed and remains confidential between the seller and the auctioneer. Both the guide price and the reserve price can be subject to change up to and including the day of the auction.
