Wooden chalet near Okehampton with no mains power or water sold at auction for £105,000

A unique 90 year old wooden chalet with no mains power or water has been sold at auction for £105,000. The two roomed chalet was built by a local artist in the 1920s who lived and worked there. The wooden building with corrugated iron roof has been used as a holiday cottage and campsite in the past. The chalet, at Belstone near Okehampton, Devon, has half an acre of land with it and the River Taw runs past it – the only running water near the building. The guide price at the Exeter auction was £75,000 but was bought by a private individual for £105,000.
