Kivells’ sixth auction of the year saw 13 lots go under the hammer, ranging from residential property and land to development opportunities and even a modern chapel, resulting in sales exceeding £1.2 million. 

Residential property continues to be in high demand with star lot of the night being The Station House and 2-4 Railways Cottages in Bodmin Parkway. Bidding was fierce in the auction room to secure this terrace of four properties seeing the hammer fall at £400,000, an impressive £150,000 above the guide. 

Treginegar Lodge, a substantial two-bedroom detached bungalow in St. Merryn, sold for £237,000 against a guide of £150,000 and Christor, a three-bedroom detached residence in Upton Cross surpassed its guide of £150,000, selling for £197,000.
