Land comes with big potential

IT’S not often you get properties for sale with full planning for the 21st century version of the ‘Big House’, but that is currently on offer at Rosegreen, in Co Tipperary.

It’s a unique sale, says selling agent, John Hodnett, who’s strayed from his West Cork patch for this property, which comprises a 50 acre farm with planning permission for two houses, 20 stables, and storage of 5,672 square feet.

Rosegreen is in the heart of Tipperary horse country, and Aidan O’Brien’s training establishment at Ballydoyle is nearby.

Mid-way between Cashel and Clonmel and a short distance from the N8, this property is very well located.

The planning permission includes a 6,220 square foot main residence in a modern take on the Georgian country house, a seven bay property with portico.

This forms a courtyard at the rear with adjoining store rooms and garages on the right hand side and on the left, the manager’s quarters, a modest enough dwelling of 1,054 square feet which connects onto the stable and forms a second courtyard.

The house and lands are at the centre of the holding, which comes without road frontage, and is accessed via a long avenue from a minor road.

The lands are very good quality, says John Hodnett, with banks of sheltering woodland and the overall package offers a very good investment, he adds.

The guide price given for the entire property is €750,000.

Cashel is 3.5 miles away and Clonmel is 7 miles.
