Description
Description
A rare opportunity to acquire a former cottage site extending to approximately 0.22 acres
Situated within the village of Henley, this attractive parcel of land comprises the remains of a former cottage set within a single enclosure extending to approximately 0.22 acres (0.09 hectares).
The land is generally level in topography and enjoys direct frontage to the council-maintained Henley Bridge Road, providing convenient access. The property offers an interesting opportunity for purchasers seeking land for conservation, amenity or recreational purposes, subject to obtaining any necessary consents.
The site contains the ruins of a former cottage and requires a degree of clearance and management. Its rural setting and historic character make it particularly appealing to those with an interest in conservation, wildlife enhancement, heritage appreciation or private amenity use.

Registering to bid and Administration fee
Cooper and Tanner requires all bidders who wish to bid at our Auction to register beforehand, whether you are intending on bidding in the room, by proxy or online. As part of the registration process, you will be asked to provide card details in order that the Buyer’s Administration Fee of £1,395 inc VAT can be paid if you are successful. A week before the auction a hold will be placed on your account for this sum, which will then be released if you are unsuccessful. This fee will only be taken if you are the successful buyer. The fee is retained by Cooper and Tanner and does not form part of your deposit or completion settlement. Please also be aware that the Buyer’s Administration fee is payable per lot purchased and applicable to all pre-auction sales. If you are successful in purchasing more than one lot, we will contact you following the auction to take subsequent payments for additional lots bought. All checks required by current anti-money laundering legislation must be satisfactorily completed, as part of the registration process before prior approval to bid will be granted; this will include providing proof of funds.
Fees
Potential buyers should be aware that there may be additional fees payable to the Vendor’s solicitor on completion of the sale, details of which will be contained within the auction pack for each lot. At the launch of the property onto the market this information is not always available and so interested parties must refer to the auction pack and satisfy their enquiries.
Deposit
Successful bidders will be required to pay to the Cooper and Tanner Client Account the deposit of 10% of the purchase price within 24 hours of the auction. The account details will be provided to the successful bidder on conclusion of the auction. Once funds are cleared, they will be transferred on to the account of the solicitor acting for the seller.
