Uttoxeter Land and Property Auction – July 2021
This auction was held on Wednesday 21st July.
Uttoxeter Property Auction
Wednesday 21st July was our first Uttoxeter property auction since September of last year albeit that we have continued to sell property by tender and private treaty.
Originally due to have eight lots go under the hammer only four were forward as three lots (The Borough’s Barns and two lots of land at Hixon) were sold prior and the building plot at Doveridge withdrawn.
Of the lots forward, we saw good interest in the Old Offices at Modershall which was sold at £330,000, 50.75 acres of land at Elmhurst, Lichfield received spirited bidding from several interested parties finally selling at £565,000, 1.46 acres of land adjoining the Trent at Handsacre was also keenly fought over, finally realising £43,000. The only lot not sold was 12.89 acres of pasture land at Rugeley which received post sale bids but is currently still available.
All in all it was a very good result with six out of the eight lots being sold and those sold on the day receiving good bidding showing the benefit of a traditional and transparent auction sale which always end with an exchange of contracts on the day for the successful sales.
The next Uttoxeter Property Auction is on the 21st September and further entries are invited.
