SDL Graham Penny has an unusual lot going under the hammer in its next Nottingham auction.

3 Park Avenue in Kimberley is much like any other auction lot; it is need of modernisation, upgrading and improvement, however this property has the added feature of an air-raid shelter in the garden!

Andrew Parker, auctioneer and managing director, commented: “Most of the properties we sell in the auction room are in need of modernisation and upgrading, however it’s quite unusual for us to have a property with this kind of period feature.

“Many of the bidders who buy at our auctions are looking for something a bit different and this property fits that criteria. We understand that the air-raid shelter was used by the residents of number 1 and number 3 during the war.”

The three bedroomed semi-detached house at 3 Park Avenue in Kimberley is in need of modernisation, upgrading and improvement and has a *guide price of £65,000+. Downstairs the house comprises an entrance hallway, lounge, sitting room, downstairs WC, kitchen and utility area, while upstairs there are three double bedrooms and a bathroom. Outside the property has a front garden with car standing area and an extensive rear garden with a variety of shrubbery, plants and an air-raid shelter.
