A quality holding 53-acre holding in West Waterford has recently come on the market with Brian Gleeson Property.
The agent is offering the holding in two lots and describes it as an “exceptional opportunity to expand your agricultural holding with this parcel in West Waterford’s agricultural heartland.”
The farm is in the townland of Currabaha, ten minutes’ drive from Dungarvan and equidistant from the N72 (Waterford-Killarney) and the N25 (Cork-Waterford).
The property enjoys a scenic location with impressive views of Dungarvan Bay. It is laid out in easily defined fields and its location may potentially favour the construction of a dwelling in the future, the agents say.
“This is good grassland,” says Brian. “Some of it would be hilly but the majority of it is suitable for grazing and/or for cutting silage.”
The interest so far has been encouraging, the agents say, and a substantial holding such as this one was always expected to generate good interest.
Presented in 2 lots, the price guide on Lot 1 (41.5 acres) is €400,000 (€9,600/acre) while the guide on Lot 2 (11.5 acres) is €100,000 (€8,700/acre). These are conservative expectations given how land prices have been evolving of late. However, the market will ultimately dictate its value and this will be an interesting property to watch over the coming weeks and months.
