Nicholls sets auction for Purcellville home in Country Club Hills

Nicholls Auction Marketing Group will auction a 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home with a basement on a half-acre lot in Purcellville, Virginia, on Nov. 5. The property is being marketed as a renovation opportunity in a rare-to-market Loudoun County neighborhood with access to commuter routes and nearby recreation.

Why it matters: - The Purcellville property gives buyers a chance to enter Country Club Hills, a Loudoun County neighborhood where homes rarely come up for public sale. - The location offers access to Route 7, Leesburg, Washington, D.C., and the broader Northern Virginia employment corridor. - The auction also puts a renovation-ready home on the market near shopping, commuter routes and outdoor amenities.

What happened: - Nicholls Auction Marketing Group announced the auction of a 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home with a basement in Country Club Hills in Purcellville, Virginia. - The live auction is set for Thursday, Nov. 5 at 3 p.m. EST at 211 N. 33rd St., Purcellville, VA 20132. - The owner relocated to a more manageable living situation, and the owner’s power of attorney hired Nicholls to market and sell the home.

Between the lines: - The marketing pitch is aimed at buyers who want a home they can update rather than a move-in-ready property. - The auction format suggests Nicholls is targeting competitive demand for a rare listing in a desirable Loudoun County location. - The property’s access to major roads and nearby recreation could widen its appeal beyond local buyers.

What's next: - Bidding closes at the Nov. 5 auction, with the winning bidder set to take the property after the sale process is completed. - Prospective buyers can review the listing details online or contact the auction coordinator before auction day.
