A high-quality 54-acre farm all in one block is new to the market and already under offer with Mallow-based O’Connell Auctioneers.
The property is in the townland of Kilcknockane, near the village of Freemount in North Cork. It is all in premium-quality permanent pasture and divided into sheltered manageable paddocks.
“It has been let for the last while and farmed very well,” says selling agent John G O’Connell. “It has an internal roadway from the public road and going right through the farm.”
The property has a derelict farmhouse off the farmyard. This is the kind of house that should quality for a vacant property refurbishment grant, offering tempting potential.
There are also various farm buildings, which are old but still of some value to the next owner. These include a machinery shed, two round-roof hay barns and a number of ancillary buildings. The property has a reliable water supply and electrical supply.
The price guide is in the region of €12,000 an acre – a figure typical of this particular part of Munster.
“It’s under offer at the moment,” says Mr O'Connell. “We’re expecting that it will make €12k an acre.”
