Library to start new chapter as building goes under hammer
A former library and homes across the Black Country with prices as low as £5,000 will feature in the UK’s largest-ever remote bidding, live-streamed auction.
The auction held by Bond Wolfe Auctions on September 16 will feature 214 lots and for many house-hunters, the chance of a bargain-priced home will provide the major attraction.
But there is also a chance to snap up a former library in Coppice Road, Walsall Wood, which has a guide price of £175,000.
Gurpreet Bassi, chief executive of Bond Wolfe Auctions, said: “While some houses have low guide prices because of their need for repairs or renovation, they can provide the perfect opportunity for those working with a limited budget to get on the property ladder.”
A three-bedroomed, end-terraced house at 2 Prosser Street, in Wolverhampton, is among those with a £5,000 guide price.
In Dudley, a three-bedroomed, mid terraced property at 90 Blackacre Road is also listed with the same guide price.
In Walsall, a three-bedroomed, semi-detached house at 7 Arrow Road has a guide price of £10,000.
Other properties on offer range from a former neighbourhood police base in the Bilston to an old library in Walsall.
Mr Bassi added: “We really will be setting new levels of achievement in the UK auctions sector with our sale on September 16, as never before have so many different lots been available for a remote bidding sale. It will offer an unprecedented opportunity for those looking for a property bargain, with access to more than 200 lots online.”
