A London flat that had been turned into a cannabis factory and was due to be auctioned off was sold after just eight days amid 'an unprecedented level of interest'
Auction House London said the property on Ballards Lane in Finchley, which had ventilation pipes and wiring still dangling from the ceiling, gained an unprecedented level of attention.
The property had been due to be sold off on March 15 at an auction, but was snapped up for an undisclosed price just eight days after the listing because of the scale of interest in the property. The buyer is a developer who plans to refurbish and put it back on the market as two apartments.
A virtual tour video posted online shows plant pots on the floor and aluminium foil on the walls, used to reflect and increase the power of growing lights, boosting the cannabis yield. Fans are also strewn throughout the cluttered property.
