A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial 8 bedroom residential holding extending to approximately 5 acres (STMS), positioned in a semi-rural yet well-connected location with clear development and asset-management potential, subject to the necessary planning consents.
The site currently comprises a circa 6,000 sq ft detached dwelling, a separate two-bedroom self-contained annex, multiple outbuildings and former stables, extensive hardstanding, paddocks and formal gardens. The existing accommodation offers scope for reconfiguration, extension, subdivision or replacement, while the scale of the plot may lend itself to future residential development, executive housing or alternative uses, subject to planning. The annex provides immediate income potential and is available with vacant possession or with tenants in situ.
Located within the established village of Walton Highway, approximately 3 miles from Wisbech and within easy reach of King’s Lynn and the A47/A17 road network, the property combines strategic location, land value and multiple exit strategies. Offered for sale by auction, this is an ideal acquisition for developers, land investors or asset managers seeking a sizeable plot with upside potential in a supply-constrained market..

The seller of this property may consider a pre-auction offer prior to the auction date. All auction conditions will remain the same for pre-auction offers which include but are not limited to, the special auction conditions which can be viewed within the legal pack, the Buyer’s Premium, and the deposit. To make a pre-auction offer we will require two forms of ID, proof of your ability to purchase the property and complete our auction registration processes online. To find out more information or to make a pre-auction offer please contact us.
Any additional costs will be listed in the Special Conditions within the legal pack and these costs will be payable on completion. The legal pack is available to download free of charge under the ‘LEGAL DOCUMENTS’. Any stamp duty and/or government taxes are not included within the Special Conditions within the legal pack and all potential buyers must make their own investigations.
We advise all bidders who require a mortgage to confirm with their Financial Advisor as to whether or not the lot you are interested in would be suitable security to borrow finance against, prior to bidding. If you need to arrange a mortgage it is important that you obtain an offer from your lender before the day of the auction. Most building societies and banks will instruct a surveyor to prepare a valuation report before making a mortgage offer.
Non-refundable fees will apply and will be clearly listed on the property details. These fees are paid to reserve the property during the Reservation Period and may take the form of: Reservation Fee – paid by the buyer and in addition to the purchase price. This does not contribute toward the purchase price. Reservation Deposit – paid by the buyer when the seller agrees to cover the fees. This deposit forms part of the purchase price and may be used to cover the auctioneer's fees. Any applicable fee or deposit will be clearly displayed on the property listing at tcpa.co.uk.
We have not carried out a survey or assessment of the property and therefore cannot confirm whether it is suitable for mortgage lending. Mortgage ability is determined solely by the buyer’s chosen lender and their surveyor. It is the buyer’s responsibility to ensure the property is suitable for lending. All prospective bidders should obtain independent advice, arrange their own survey, and confirm mortgage suitability before bidding. No warranty, guarantee, or representation is given or implied regarding the condition of the property or its mortgage suitability. Bidders must rely on their own inspections, enquiries, and professional advice.

It is subject to change throughout the marketing period. Where the Guide Price is a single figure, the current Reserve will not be more than 10% above that single figure, and where a price range is given (i.e. £50,000 - £55,000), the Reserve will not exceed the upper level of the range. It is not necessarily what the auctioneer expects it will sell for.
