A house in Worthing built at the end of the reign of Queen Victoria has come onto the market for the first time.

Built by local builder and developer William Wenban Smith, the house is one of four in the terrace.

Internally it is like a time warp with some lovely original features. All the doors, door mouldings and skirting boards have the original painted wood grain effect which is in remarkable condition. There is an outside WC and one of the bedrooms still has evidence of wall-mounted gas light fittings.

As this house is at the end of the terrace it also has the additional benefit of a

The freehold on the three-storey property at 580 Christchurch Road was among 24 lots being sold by regional land and property auctioneers Clive Emson.

Rob Marchant, auctioneer, said: "We received keen interest in the property, resulting in a bidding war. The final bid came in at £65,000 above guide price. There is a lot of property for the money here, in a prime retail area."

A block of toilets with a stunning sea view across St Austell bay has been sold at auction for £115,000.

The 502 sq ft loo block and grounds has been sold to a mystery buyer - after smashing the freehold guide price of £75,000 to £95,000.

At UK Auction List, the team uploads a number of properties on a daily basis and there are always ones we like to have a good chit chat about. 

This week's auction lot is situated in Suffolk and comprises a derelict building of some kind on a little 0.2 acre plot with fields on both sides as well as across the road.

What's so unusual with this one is that the authorities have made clear they will not approve any kind of replacement structure. They want the existing structure reused! It's a very unusual one, and we can vouch for just how overgrown it is having seen Streetview - we're unable to

Interest in property auctions shows no signs of waning with a packed attendance at an estate agent's recent sale paying above the guide value in many cases and almost all the properties going to new owners.

Around 200 people packed into the latest property auction held by Bury and Hilton at Westwood Golf Club, Leek, and after spirited bidding eight out of nine lots sold – an 89 per cent success rate.

Highlight of the evening was the sale of Ivy Cottage, Clerks Bank, Ipstones, which is a two-bedroomed detached cottage in one and a quarter acres of land and in need of modernisation and

The number of mortgages being granted across the UK hit a six-month high in February, Bank of England data shows.

During the month, 61,760 mortgages were approved - just over a thousand more than in January.

It was the third month in a row that approvals have risen, and the highest figure since August 2014.

Even though the rise was small, economists said it indicated that the housing market had bottomed out, and was now facing a steady improvement.

Nevertheless the number of approvals is still well below the recent peak of 75,453 in January 2014.

"Housing market weakness has bottomed out, and

TWO freehold wind turbine sites near Stafford will be going under the hammer next week.

The plots at Ashes Covert in Seighford, near the M6, will be put up for sale at Eddisons property auction in London on April 8th.

The plots extend to approximately 0.30 acres and have planning permission in place for two, 250kw wind turbines. They are being offered individually, with guide prices of £150,000 plus each.

Simon Bailey, director and auctioneer at Eddisons said: "Similar turbines have generated very healthy returns once operational and I encourage potential buyers to carry out their own

THE Old Hospital building in Minehead was sold for £350,000 at auction last week - and it wasn't to Minehead Development Trust.

The identity of the highest bidder is unknown and it is unclear what is to be done with the building.

Minehead Development Trust – a regeneration group – had hoped to purchase the Grade II listed building to turn it into a community hub, providing the town with services such as a library and information centre, a museum and a large community run public space.

According to a poll by the County Gazette, 59% of the people who answered it wanted to see a community hub in
