Bakewell Property Auction Report – Monday 21st July 2025

Bagshaws’ latest property auction, held at the Agricultural Centre in Bakewell on Monday 21st July, marked another milestone in the 2025 property sales calendar. Despite signs of a more cautious market, the auction still brought in over £2 million in sales, reflecting ongoing demand for well-positioned property and land across the region.

While some lots remain unsold, the strong sale of headline properties including New Barn Farm, Aldwark for £1.1 million demonstrates that motivated buyers remain active, particularly for standout opportunities.

• Land at Merehay – £155,000

With buyer confidence tempered by economic uncertainty and high interest rates, we are seeing more selective bidding. However, the market remains active, and buyers are still prepared to move quickly when the right opportunities arise. We invite interested parties to get in touch regarding the remaining lots. Post-auction sales present a valuable opportunity in a market where competition is more measured.

Looking Ahead

We now look forward to our next auction in September, where early entries including 47 Chesterfield Road – Shirland, Callow Farm – Hathersage,  Lammas Barn – Shottle and Pale Row Barn – Shottle are already generating interest.
