A hidden away property by Margate’s Old Town has sold at auction for £351,250 – some £100,000 more than the guide price.

Cuckoo’s Nest is a now overgrown, substantial four storey property that has not been touched for many years.

The property at 88 Trinity Square was being offered with a freehold guide price of £220-240,000.

Jon Rimmer, auction appraiser, said: “The property does require complete refurbishment but it can be easily re-imagined as a fantastic home.”
