Under the hammer for the second time in half a century

We don’t usually report on individual properties for sale but this one caught our eye – not least for the delightful period auction particulars and the rather striking present-day interior photos.

This house was first sold at auction over 50 years ago and is set to go under the hammer on April 23rd for the second time in half a century.

 

Little Granary in Woldingham, Surrey has been listed by Network Auctions with a guide price of £750,000+ and is being sold by Order of the Trustees. But unlike the first 1969 auction, when it was sold by Order of the Executors, there will not follow an auction sale of the valuable contents…

The three-bedroom detached house with double garage was originally a 1950s architect designed house, but having been unlived in for many years, it has fallen into disrepair. Would-be bidders have been advised to exercise caution on scheduled viewings due to the collapsed ceilings as a result of leaking pipes and water ingress.

 

Auctioneer Toby Limbrick, said: ‘The site occupies a prime location with attractive open views to the rear – many of which will remain the same as when it was first sold at auction over 50 years ago.

‘We’re delighted to be selling Little Granary at auction after it’s debut over 50 years ago. After years of neglect, we hope the winning bidder will maximise the potential on offer.’
