Totterdown Rent Prices in Bristol 2026
Our Verdict
"The Grid"
With a median price of £24/m², Totterdown has firmly entered THE_GRID, moving away from its roots as a cheaper alternative to Southville. While the investment outlook remains strong due to the sheer proximity to the city centre, renters are now paying a steep premium for views and a colorful facade. If you aren't working near the station, the £18.5 - £31.5/m² range starts to feel like a tax on 'cool' rather than a calculation of convenience.
The Vibe:Totterdown is a vertical maze of neon-painted Victorian terraces where your calf muscles get a workout every time you head to the shop. It serves as the primary landing zone for Temple Meads commuters who prefer a 10-minute downhill dash to the platform over relying on the First Bus network. The atmosphere is defined by steep inclines, residential street art, and the constant smell of burning clutch plates on Vale Street.
The median rent price in Totterdown, Bristol is £24 per m² per month, 7% below the Bristol city average of £25.75/m². Based on 1 verified rental data points as of February 2026.

Locals Ask
Is parking really that bad in Totterdown?
Yes, it is a nightmare; expect to circle the block for 20 minutes if you arrive home after 6 PM.
How do the m² stats compare to the city average?
At £24/m², you're paying significantly more per square foot than in nearby Knowle for the sake of being closer to the station.
What is the investment outlook for landlords?
High demand and low stock mean yields remain steady, though the £31.5/m² ceiling is currently being tested by the cost-of-living squeeze.
Is it noisy living near the Wells Road?
The main road is a constant drone of commuter traffic, but move two streets back and it becomes eerily quiet.
What should I check before signing a lease here?
Check the damp levels and window seals; these Victorian hillsides get battered by wind and rain, which can lead to hefty heating bills.
