How do you know it was not the same idiot selling the bit of land
adjacent to his toilet window in the first place, since it was a chance
to get an extra 40K for not much, and "who cares since I am flogging the
house anyway!" ;-)
I think I would sell the house first retaining the land, then sell the land
later. The house was seriously devalued by that monstrosity.
IIRC doing it that way, the land gets full CGT, as it is no
longer part of your main dwelling.
