Sheldon Bosley Knight’s second auction of the year promises to be full of spring stunners.
A total of 15 lots will be available at the sale at Stratford-upon-Avon town hall on Wednesday, March 26. They will be a mix of land ripe for development, buy-to-let opportunities, detached country cottages and even a pair of garages.
One of the most eagerly anticipated is that of a detached, two-bed bungalow in Sutton Coldfield. Located in a highly sought-after and convenient central location, 47 Grange Lane offers spacious living accommodation throughout with two bedrooms, shower room and a sitting room with views of the garden. With a guide price of £295,000 this won’t hang around.
For those looking for an investment opportunity, a one-bed apartment in Hampton Court, St Mary’s Road, Market Harborough may be just the ticket. On for £70,000 it offers a yield of 10% based on the auction guide price.
The second floor apartment is right in the heart of Market Harborough and with some minor redecoration and modernisation could also be a great first time buyer home. As well as a great internal space, it also has an allocated parking bay.
Country cottages don’t come much prettier than the Grade II listed 21 Evans Lane, situated in the lovely Oxfordshire village of Kidlington (pictured).
This detached stone property has four bedrooms, two garages and outside stores. It is in need of renovation and modernisation and would suit an investor or developer, but has the potential to be reinstated as a superb family home. With a guide price of £475,000 this is certain to be a popular lot.
Over in the sought-after village of Cleeve Prior near Evesham is Sunnyacre, a four-bedroom detached bungalow which offers fantastic potential. It sits on a plot of 0.95 acres and has beautiful countryside views. There is plenty of scope to renovate or even extend subject to planning. It has a guide price of £450,000 and, with no onward chain, has had a lot of interest.
Land is also up for grabs in the auction. One of the best is a plot next to Meadow View in Bishopton Lane, in Stratford-upon-Avon as it offers the buyer a multitude of uses.
It offers a self-build development opportunity as it comes with permission for a one-bedroom bungalow. However, it could also be used as additional garden space or storage. It is situated off a private road and has vehicle and pedestrian access. With a guide price of £90,000 it’s no surprise it’s attracted a lot of interest.
