In September, the Vitebsk Regional Property Committee has scheduled 45 auctions for the sale of unused state property.

In addition, the committee is putting up for auction shares of two joint-stock companies – a motor transport and forwarding company in Vitebsk and the Eton plant in Novolukoml.

The largest real estate object offered for sale in September is the production site of the former winery on Pokrovskaya Street in Vitebsk.

The complex of buildings is located in the historical part of the city, in the area where Marc Chagall once lived.

After the plant's liquidation in 2017, the unused complex of facilities remained state property, which includes an administrative building with the status of a historical and cultural value of the 3rd category.

Also located here are two production buildings, an oatmeal cookie workshop, a spirit storehouse, a warehouse, a gatehouse, and utility networks. The total area of the capital constructions is over 5,000 sq.m.

A land plot of almost 2 hectares will be provided to the new owner. In accordance with the land plot's designation, it is possible to accommodate a complex of multi-apartment and private housing, or public facilities.

Over the past year, the committee has unsuccessfully put the object up for auction 7 times.

In September, the winery is offered for sale at auction with a 30% price reduction.

The largest of the objects sold in August was the school building in Chashniki, which was purchased at auction for the base price by a private medical company from Russia. Based on the school, with an area of over 3,000 sq.m., it is planned to open a rehabilitation centre for patients with cardiological profiles.

The centre is planned to be equipped with modern equipment for restoring bodily functions lost after a stroke and heart attack.

In the future, the investor is considering the possibility of expanding its presence in Belarus by creating a network of similar centres, which are intended to be located in small settlements in other regions.

In total, over 8 months of this year, 96 unused state property objects have been involved in economic circulation through their sale at auction, which significantly exceeds last year's figures.
