Property description & features

A parcel of former quarry land, now restored to a wetland wildlife habitat, with potential for a variety of different uses. For sale by Traditional Online Auction.

PROPERTY
The land at Trewint Marsh comprises approximately 16.98 acres of wetland interspersed with ponds or varying sizes and wooded areas.

The site has historically been used for quarrying purposes and as such benefits from good access being located immediately off the A30. Not used for such purposes for over 15 years and the site restored to a wetland habitat, it now offers potential for various other uses, the most obvious being for high quality conservation or recreation, or by virtue of its location, for uses that might be more commercial in their nature (subject to obtaining any necessary consents).

METHOD OF SALE
The land is offered for sale by Traditional Online Auction at a guide price of £55,000 - £75,000. The auction will conclude at 12:00pm on Wednesday 18th September 2024.

The property will be sold subject to an undisclosed reserve price and the vendor/s reserve the right for the auctioneer to bid in the usual way on their behalf up to the reserve. The vendor reserves the right to withdraw or alter the property for sale prior to the auction end date.

DEFINITION OF GUIDE PRICE & RESERVE PRICE
Guide Price - An indication of the seller’s expectation.

Reserve Price - The minimum price at which the auctioneer is authorised to sell the lot at auction. The auctioneer is not authorised to sell at a figure below the reserve price.

The reserve will be set within the guide price range, or where applicable at no more than 10% above or below a single guide figure.

Both the guide price and the reserve price are subject to change. Potential purchasers should ensure that they register their interest in the property and regularly check for updated information regarding the property, including changes to the guide price.

REGISTRATION & PROOF OF IDENTITY
In order to comply with The Money Laundering, Terrorist Financing and Transfer of Funds (Information on the Payer) Regulations 2017, it is a requirement for all Estate Agents to perform due diligence checks on any person intending to bid at auction. Therefore, all interested parties will need to register via the online auction platform (Bamboo), complete ID checks and provide other information before they are able to place a bid.

AUCTION LEGAL PACK
The legal pack includes documents such as the draft contract, transfer, searches, deeds/epitome of title and the special conditions of sale. Interested parties will need to register with the online auction platform (Bamboo) to be able to download the legal pack free of charge. It is the purchaser’s responsibility to make all necessary enquiries prior to the auction. Prospective purchasers are strongly advised to inspect the legal documentation, this will/may contain material information regarding the property, and to take legal advice prior to bidding.

BUYER'S FEE
The successful purchaser/s will be liable to pay the sum of £5,000 immediately after the auction ends. From this a buyer’s fee of £3,600 (inc VAT) is retained by Carter Jonas and Bamboo Auctions as a contribution towards the online platform costs, and £1,400 forms part of the 10% contract deposit (the Holding Deposit).

DEPOSIT PAYMENT
Exchange of contracts will take place upon the conclusion of the auction and the purchaser will be legally obliged to pay 10% of the purchase price as a deposit. The Seller and Buyer agree that the winning Bidder will transfer the remainder of the 10% deposit (less the holding deposit amount paid online via the Bamboo Platform immediately after the auction end) by 12pm the next working day after the auction ends, in line with the Holding Deposit Agreement contained within the legal pack. The remainder of the 10% deposit payment is handled by the buyer’s solicitors and sent directly to the sellers’ solicitor. Therefore, it is essential that you instruct your solicitor in advance of the auction. The remaining balance of the purchase price will be paid on completion of the sale.

ADDITIONAL COSTS
The purchaser will also be required to reimburse the vendor for search fees, details of which are available in the auction pack.

TENURE & POSSESSION
Freehold with vacant possession upon completion 4 weeks after the auction, or earlier by agreement.

ENVIRONMENTAL SCHEMES

Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted

    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
