PROPERTY buyers have been left in shock after spotting an entire street up for sale, including 24 houses but the price tag is eye-watering.
The mind blowing value offers 1.77 acres, three garages and a workshop, alongside 12 terrace houses, eight semi-detached properties, two detached houses and two mixed use lots.
Listed to go on sale by auction on November 6, the Dock Road mixed-use buildings are on offer for starting bids from just over £1.5 million.
According to the Rightmove advertisement, the properties differ in design and are being sold in varying states of repair.
However, the sale must be considered by buyers willing to purchase the entire lot as a whole.
Some properties appear to have been kept in good condition with well-maintained and furnished rooms.

While others appear to be structurally intact with exposed floorboards, brick walls and peeling plaster.
Many of the houses boast cosy-looking living areas centred around fireplaces and have also been fitted with kitchens of differing quality.
Large windows and white washed walls have also been captured in some of the pictures with less obvious work needed due to the existing sleek and modern cabinets.
One particular part of the premises offers a generously sized garden for someone willing to strip back the weeds.
Advertised on the property selling website, keen buyers or interested locals could head to the auction house’s website.
Allsop has created a brochure with over 100 pages breaking down the separate aspects of the potential purchase to help those considering the work that would be needed to gain a profit from the sale.
A potential further investment has been offered with one house subject to a regulated tenancy with another five properties vacant.
The surrounding area also offers the neighbouring Gloucester and Sharpness Canal.
Green fields, countryside viewpoints and organic gardens also look to be on the doorstep just a few minutes drive away according to Google Maps.
Reddit users discussed the unique sale with many taking to the comments section to try and find a catch.
One person said: “Probably just a landlord desperate to get out asap with new rules coming in.”
A second wrote: “There has to be a catch, what is it? Flooding from the river? Are they built from literal asbestos bricks?”
Someone else put: “Wow, that’s pretty grim.”
Yet others investigated the area further with one claiming the houses were originally built to serve dock workers.
Overall the post seems to have attracted interest with more than 40 reactions and slightly less comments.
Lydney Station is only 2.2 miles away from the site offering anyone considering placing a bid a connecting railway that could offer them a way of travelling to the site.
