Leicester block of flats leads Auction House London sale

An unbroken freehold block of 33 flats in Leicester will go under the hammer at the Auction House London sale on 18 July with a guide price of £1.7m-plus.

The block, known as The Leys, has an estimated rental value of £184,800 pa. Planning permission was granted in May 2017 to turn ground-floor storage space into two further flats.

Other £1m-plus lots in the catalogue include a vacant flat in St John’s Wood, NW8. The two-bedroom ground-floor flat in Viceroy Court on Prince Albert Road comes with underground parking and a communal roof terrace.

A recently completed block of seven two-bedroom flats in the Formby area of Liverpool is offered for £1m-plus.  

For smaller budgets, a flat in Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire, is up for grabs for £90,000-plus. The vacant two-bedroom flat in need of refurbishment is in a grade II-listed converted building in the village of Shipton-under-Wychwood. It is offered jointly with Hamptons.

Or for a more unusual investment, a piece of the Surrey Hills will be offered with a guide of £15,000. The 0.4-acre piece of land at Pasture Wood Road, Holmbury St Mary, Dorking, boasts spectacular views across the surrounding countryside and is offered with freeholder’s consent to erect a dwelling or outbuildings. 

The sale will take place at the London Marriott, NW3.
