Ever fancied owning your very own watermill, or perhaps a piece of Islington pavement? If so, now's your chance – both are among the more unusual properties coming up for auction. Here is our pick of the unexpected lots going under the hammer this month.
Pavement, London, N1
A pavement area in Islington of approximately 560 sq ft will be up for sale with a disclosed reserve price of £4,000. The plot is situated on the east side of Islington Green, near the junction of Upper Street and adjacent to Camden Passage and its markets, shops, cafés and restaurants. This unusual patch of land offers bidders the opportunity to invest in Islington for a fraction of the price of a property. It could simply be held as an investment or potentially used for commercial purposes such as a location for a Saturday market stall or a mobile coffee shop, subject to the requisite consents.
