As we’ve seen time and time again this year, no reserve auctions are becoming a popular alternative for sellers tired of watching their luxury homes languish on the market. From Mark Teixeira’s Dallas home to Prince’s former Turks & Caicos getaway, incredible properties all over the world are going to auction without a minimum price established and now a 10-acre Redding estate called Shelterfields is seeking a buyer the same way. Last seen on the market for $10.25 million, an interested bidder can get quite the deal.The original structure was built in 1907 as a carriage house, but extensive renovations and additions, completed 100 years later in 2007, have produced a 8,522-square-foot main residence that offers six bedrooms, six bathrooms, and three half baths. Other welcome additions include a wine cellar that can hold over 1,000 bottles, a large gunite pool, and multiple patios where a new owner can enjoy sweeping countryside views.A strong connection to nature is felt throughout the bucolic estate, but especially in the enchanting gated garden and lovely detached greenhouse. If you have a green thumb, there are also plenty of opportunities to grow your garden skills near the charming pond.Platinum Luxury Auctions will hold the auction on June 9th at 1:00pm. Only registered bidders will be permitted to participate, so make sure to register now.
