From this source

You can do :

make clean removes any intermediate or output files from your source / build tree
If you can, running make uninstall will work.
The last option is you have to manually uninstall it. Running make -n install

Note : You must cd the file location where you make install

I think this will work. Try this.

pip uninstall python==3.5.0

However, if python comes with dependencies, do not uninstall them.
