June Auction Highlights

Posted by Clive Emson Auctioneers on 1st July 2020 -

With Summer just around the corner, could June be the perfect month for you to get involved in our online auctionsand secure yourself your next exciting piece of property or land development?

June looks to be exciting as ever with a total of 83 lots available, all vetted by our qualified and experienced staff. With so much to choose from it can be difficult to know where to start, which is why we’ve picked out five lots from this month’s auction that definitely shouldn’t be missed.  

Former church in the Sussex countryside

Situated in the heart of the South Downs National Park just outside of the small village of Houghton in West Sussex, we’re proud to offer this attractive former church with stunning views over the surrounding countryside.

Previously built for the Duke of Norfolk in 1880, the church has undergone many uses in its lifetime, including its original intended use as a place of worship, to more recently as an antiques retail space.

Having recently acquired planning consent, the church would be an ideal purchase for an investor with the desire to convert the property for residential use. With two floors, newly landscaped gardens and a driveway, the property would provide a stunning new home, or as an attractive property to rent out.

The church has a guide price of £480,000 – £520,000 and is available as part of our upcoming June auction. For more information, please visit the dedicated property listing for the church, or contact us on 01622 608400.

8 bedroom Victorian residence

If space is what you need, then you’ll be spoilt for it with this gorgeous eight bedroom detached residence located in Ryde on the Isle of Wight.

Built as a ‘Gentleman’s Residence’ in Victorian times, the building was then turned into a maternity ward during World War Two to help support the town of Ryde during the time. 

Fast forward to the 21st century, and the spacious property is ready for a new owner. While traditionally imagined to be used as a large family home, the space gives buyers a number of other possible exciting commercial opportunities, such as a conversion into a number of smaller apartments, or even various professional uses, such as a surgery.

The property has a guide price of £340,000-£360,000 and is available as part of our upcoming June auction. Full information can be found on the property listing for this 8-bed house. Alternatively, give us a ring on 01622 608400.

Buildings and land in Cornwall village

An exciting opportunity to own two adjacent stone buildings, both with their own pieces of attached land this month.

Situated in the small village of Menheniot in Cornwall, the lot is composed of both a chapel and a building locally known as The Old Smithy. The chapel has floor space over three levels, including a garage on the ground floor, while The Old Smithy is a spacious single-storey building. Both buildings also offer their own gardens and off-road parking.

The buildings would benefit from an investor with an interest in redeveloping both buildings, either for residential or commercial use, subject to conditions.

The property has a guide price of £82,000 – £100,000 and is available as part of our upcoming June auction. All information can be found on the property listing. If you have any other questions, contact us on 01622 608400.

Former pub to make your own

Ever dreamed of owning your very own pub? Well, that dream could become a reality with the help of this former public house located in the town of Ilminster, Somerset.

Composed of the bar area, two residential bedrooms, three ‘bed and breakfast’ rooms and a courtyard garden, the property is well suited should an investor wish for the property to keep its commercial status as a public house.

However, should you wish for the property to be used in a residential setting, there is also clear potential for residential subdivision should you wish.

The property has a guide price of £140,00 – £160,000 and is available as part of our upcoming June auction. For more information, please visit the public house’s lot page, or contact us on 01622 608400.

Victorian four bedroom B&B

Our second Victorian property this month, this four-bed Victorian home situated in Southsea, Hampshire, is an enticing investment opportunity for someone with the desire to renovate it with some cosmetic improvements.

Originally operating as a B&B, the property would suit someone looking to revert it back into a family home. Of course, if owning and operating your own B&B takes your fancy, the property is still well equipped for commercial use.

Located in a popular residential area and only a short distance away from the famous Kings Theatre, this property has the facilities and the location you need to make it your own home or your next exciting business venture.

The property has a guide price of £600,000 plus and is available as part of our upcoming June Auction. For more information on the property, visit the lots property page, or get in contact with us on 01622 608400.
