0.62 acres of amenity land in a quiet rural location with potential for alternative uses, subject to obtaining the necessary planning permissions and any other relevant consents.
Description - A parcel of land extending to 0.62 acres in a well-sized, manageable square block. The land is located in the rural countryside of Staffordshire in close proximity to the village of Adbaston as well as larger towns including Newport and Stafford. Access is just off Shay Lane, a rural road via a bridleway. The land itself is relatively flat and provides an excellent opportunity for grazing, equestrian or future alternative uses, subject to planning when required.

Once there, turn left down Shay Lane and follow for 3.1 miles to a Shropshire Canal bridge. Continue under the bridge for another 800 meters and the land will be located on your left.

Guide Price/Reserve - Guides are provided as an indication of each sellers minimum expectation. They are not necessarily figures which a property will sell for and may change at any time prior to the auction. Each property will be offered subject to a reserve (a figure below which the Auctioneer cannot sell the property during the auction) which we expect will be set within the Guide Range or no more than 10% above a single figure guide.
Buyers Premium - In addition to the contract deposit required, buyers should note when bidding, that on the fall of the gavel, they will be responsible for paying a Buyer’s Premium. This is additional to the purchase price, is payable on the day of the auction, and is price structured as follows:
Sale price of £25,000 or more: 3.5% plus VAT, subject to a minimum fee of
£4,000 plus VAT.
Sale price of £24,999 or less: fixed fee of £2,000 plus VAT.
This will apply if the land is sold before, at or after the Auction.
Bidding On Behalf Of Another Party - Where a person registers to bid on behalf of another individual or entity (the “Ultimate Purchaser”), the Auctioneers must be notified in advance of the auction. The bidder will be required to provide a valid, signed letter of authority from the Ultimate Purchaser confirming they are authorised to bid on their behalf. In addition, full identification and verification checks must be completed on the Ultimate Purchaser in accordance with anti-money laundering regulations prior to the auction. The individual attending and bidding must also produce satisfactory identification on the day. The Auctioneers reserve the right to refuse registration and/or any bid where these requirements have not been fully satisfied.
