Hide AdAuctioneer and senior partner Adrian Little said: “This was a really strong result, crazy really.
"If we had got between £10,000 and £15,000 it would have been a good result.”
The garage attracted 18 bidders and competition among those who took part in the bidding was fierce.
Mr Little added: “There is a lack of garages in that area, which has a lot of old Victorian properties where there is no garage.”
