INTRODUCING COOPER AND TANNER ONLINE AUCTIONS Cooper and Tanner Online Auctions is a new, innovative and pioneering platform for buying and selling property It provides all the benefits synonymous with traditional auctions, including: speed and certainty of sale, transparency and zero risk of gazumping or double-selling, but with the added advantage of being able to bid pressure-free from the comfort of your own home or office via desktop, tablet or mobile phone.

A STRAIGHTFORWARD PROCESS FROM START TO FINISH In order to bid at Cooper and Tanner Online Auctions you will first need to create an account by providing your contact details. You will be required to verify your email address, by clicking an activation link that we’ll send to you via email. Once you’ve created an account you can ‘watch’ lots that you’re interested in (you’ll be kept up-to- date throughout the auction cycle), as well as gain access to the legal packs. In order to place a bid on a lot you will need to complete the bidder registration steps, as detailed below. Please note, the first time you register to bid you will also be asked to verify your mobile number and upload copies of your photo ID (e.g. driver’s licence or passport) and recent proof of address (dated within the last 3 months). This is required so we can easily keep in touch and helps us confirm your identity in the event of you purchasing a lot.

ENSURE YOU READ, UNDERSTAND AND ACCEPT THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS You will be asked to read and accept our Online Auction Terms and Conditions. Additionally, there may be specific documentation relating to the sale of the property you’re registering to bid on that will need to be read and accepted before you are able to bid. A copy of the Terms and Conditions is also available at the back of this catalogue. Once accepted, you will receive a copy of the document(s) via email for your own records.

REGISTER YOUR CREDIT OR DEBIT CARD FOR THE BIDDERS REGISTRATION FEE In order to bid online you will be required to register a credit or debit card for the Bidders Registration Fee. We use Stripe who provide a secure, online card registration facility, and they will attempt to place a ‘hold on funds’ on your account for the bidder security amount (often known as a ‘payment shadow’ as no money is taken at this stage). The bidder security amount will be clearly displayed when registering your card. On the fall of the electronic gavel, the winning bidder’s card will be automatically debited for the Bidders Registration Fee of £1200 inc VAT whilst all the unsuccessful bidder’s cards will have their shadow payments released (this can take several days depending on the card provider). For more information about this process please read the detailed explanation at the end of this document.

FINAL STEP – AUCTIONEER REVIEW Once you have completed the bidder registration steps, Cooper and Tanner will review your registration to bid. We will contact you to obtain proof of funding for the purchase price. You will be notified by email as soon as you have been approved to bid.

RECOMMENDED DUE DILIGENCE BEFORE BIDDING In general terms, you are strongly advised to view the property and take professional advice as to its condition and suitability. You should also ensure that you thoroughly read and understand the legal pack and any other associated documentation available online and take proper legal advice accordingly. Finally, understand the contract you are entering into and the financial commitment that you will be liable for should you be the successful purchaser. Legal packs are available to download from the Cooper and Tanner website by opening the page for the property that you are interested in and using the tab called “Legals” on the red bidding screen.

WHAT IS A GUIDE PRICE? The guide price is an indication of the seller’s current minimum price expectation at auction and the guide price, or range of guide prices, is given to assist prospective purchasers. The guide price can be adjusted by the seller at any time up to the day of the auction in light of the interest shown during the marketing period and bidders will be notified of this change on our website and by the auctioneer prior to the lot being offered.

WHAT IS A RESERVE PRICE? The reserve price is the seller’s minimum acceptable price at auction and the figure below which the auctioneer cannot sell. It is usual, but not always the case that a provisional reserve is agreed between the seller and the auctioneer at the start of marketing and the Final Reserve Price will be agreed between the auctioneer and the seller prior to the auction sale. Whilst the reserve price is confidential it will usually be set within the quoted guide range and in any event will not exceed the highest quoted guide price.

STRESS-FREE BIDDING FROM THE COMFORT OF YOUR OWN HOME When the auction opens, you will be able to place bids in line with the pre-determined bid increment levels, using the bid increase (+) and decrease (–) buttons provided. Having set your preferred bid amount and clicking the ‘Place Bid’ button, you will be asked to confirm your bid at which point it will be placed. Every time you submit a bid you will be clearly shown whether your bid was successful, and a full list of all bids is displayed on-screen at all times.

Maximum (proxy) bids You are not restricted to placing a bid at the minimum bid amount, but can instead increase your bid and place a maximum (proxy) bid in the system. By setting a maximum bid, the system will automatically bid on your behalf to maintain your position as the highest bidder, up to your maximum bid amount. If you are outbid, you will be notified via email so you can opt to increase your bid if you so choose.

How proxy bids work with the reserve price Every lot is offered for sale subject to a reserve price (the minimum price that the auctioneer is authorised to sell for on the day). When you submit a maximum bid, the actual bid placed by the system will depend on where the reserve price is in relation to your maximum bid, as defined below.

If your maximum bid is below the reserve price The system will place an immediate bid at your maximum bid amount.

If your maximum bid is at or above the reserve price The system will automatically increase your bid to be at the reserve, and will only bid again on your behalf if you are subsequently outbid by another bidder (up to your maximum bid amount). If another bidder has already placed the same maximum bid or higher, they will be the highest bidder at your max bid level and the system will notify you via email so you can place another bid.

NB: Your maximum bid is kept completely confidential – it’s presence or amount are not disclosed to the auctioneer, vendor or any other bidder.

THE BIDDING EXTENSION WINDOW ELIMINATES ‘BID SNIPING’ Unlike eBay, bid sniping is impossible on our online auction platform. All auctions will close as per their advertised ‘Auction End Date’, however if a bid is placed within the final 60 seconds of the auction’s scheduled end time the auction will be extended by an additional 60 seconds – known as the ‘bidding extension window’.

If a bid is placed in the bidding extension window, the countdown clock will immediately reset to 60 seconds again, and the auction will only finish when an entire 60 second bidding extension window passes without any further bids being placed, i.e. 60 seconds of 'bidding silence'. This ensures every bidder has a fair and equal opportunity to place another bid.

LEGAL POSITION WHEN YOU’VE WON THE AUCTION We offer property for sale by immediate, unconditional contract. This means that the fall of the electronic gavel constitutes an exchange of contracts between the buyer and seller. Both parties are legally bound to complete the transaction – usually within 28 days following the close of the auction but this will be confirmed within the legal documentation. On conclusion of the auction, successful bidders will be required to pay to the solicitor acting for the vendor a deposit of 10% of the purchase price by the close of the following business day. Please contact the solicitor acting for the lot directly prior to the auction to discuss suitable method of payment if you are unsure.

WE’LL GUIDE YOU THROUGH TO COMPLETION If you are the successful purchaser, we’ll be in touch following the online auction to discuss the next steps. The system will take the Bidders Registration Fee amount from your registered credit or debit card (all underbidders will have their hold on funds released); the contract will then be signed on your behalf with copies being sent to both your solicitor and the seller’s solicitor.

HOW THE PAYMENT REGISTRATION WORKS In order to bid online you are required to submit details of a credit or debit card. When you register your card, we will be placing a hold on funds on your credit card (or bank account if you use a debit card), to the value of the Bidders Registration Fee. This means that the amount we’re holding will affect the available amount you have to spend on your card, as the amount will be ring-fenced and you will not be able to spend it until the hold has been released. The Bidder’s registration fee is £1200 inclusive of VAT. Please note that the Bidder’s registration fee is in addition to deposit and is not deducted from the completion monies.

If you are the winning bidder then the amount will be taken in full from your registered credit card or bank account immediately following the close of the auction. If you are not a winning bidder then the hold on funds will be released from your card, but be aware that it can take anything from a few hours up to several days for the hold to be released (dependent on the card issuer). If in doubt, contact your card issuer. Please be aware that you will not have access to the funds until the hold has been released.

Description

We are delighted to be able to bring to the market 2 Splott Villas for the first time since the property was built over 100 years ago. Since then it has been occupied by the same family and now offers the opportunity for someone else to take it on and create a wonderful home within easy reach of Bath and Bristol and close to the village of Peasedown St John which has a super range of amenities including shops, surgery and school.

The accommodation is arranged over two floors and requires renovation and improvement throughout. The existing layout could be reconfigured, as the neighbours have done, to make an open plan living space. The ground floor currently comprises an entrance hall with stairs rising to the first floor and doors opening to the two reception rooms and the kitchen. Beyond the kitchen is a large conservatory which is used as a utility room and then beyond this there is a cloakroom and coal store. All of which could be incorporated into the main accommodation.

On the first floor there is a pleasant open landing with a large airing cupboard and doors opening to the three bedrooms, two of which are lovely double rooms with feature fireplaces and the third is a smaller single room. There is also a good sized family bathroom.

Outside The gardens lie to the front and rear, with the rear gardens being detached from the house by the private access to the terrace. The front garden slopes gently towards the hedge at the far end and from this area there are far reaching views across the adjoining countryside. The rear garden is just over 160 feet in length and is currently laid to lawn with some mature shrubs and trees.
