What the Owner says:

This house has been a very happy family home for over twenty-five years now. Although the house was a bit run down when it was first purchased it was the potential of the house that appealed to our parents.

Over the years the house has been extended and renovated and the outbuilding was converted to create self-contained annexes, which meant that as grew up we were able to have our own space.

More recently though the annexes were used to provide a thriving B&B business, it was a roaring success, but the outbuilding could easily be converted into a separate house, subject to any planning permissions. Making it ideal for multi-generational families that wish to live together but still retain some privacy and independence.

AUCTIONEER'S COMMENTS

This property is for sale by the Modern Method of Auction. Should you view, offer or bid on the property, your information will be shared with the Auctioneer, iamsold.

This method of auction requires both parties to complete the transaction within 56 days of the draft contract for sale being received by the buyers solicitor. This additional time allows buyers to proceed with mortgage finance (subject to lending criteria, affordability and survey).

The buyer is required to sign a reservation agreement and make payment of a non-refundable Reservation Fee, this being 4.2% of the purchase price including VAT, subject to a minimum of £6,000.00 including VAT. The Reservation Fee is paid in addition to purchase price and will be considered as part of the chargeable consideration for the property in the calculation for stamp duty liability.

Buyers will be required to go through an identification verification process with iamsold and provide proof of how the purchase would be funded.

This property has a Buyer Information Pack which is a collection of documents in relation to the property. The documents may not tell you everything you need to know about the property, so you are required to complete your own due diligence before bidding. A sample copy of the Reservation Agreement and terms and conditions are also contained within this pack.

The buyer will also make payment of £300 including VAT towards the preparation cost of the pack, where it has been provided by iamsold.

The property is subject to an undisclosed Reserve Price with both the Reserve Price and Starting Bid being subject to change. The seller can instruct iamsold to agree a sale without a bidding process taking place or prior to a closing date. No further bids can be accepted after a buyer has paid a Reservation Fee
