49-acre farm ticks all boxes
With a one to one ratio of acres of land to milk quota, the property is guide priced at between €1 million and €1.5m by John Hodnett of SWS Property Services.
It’s only a few fields away from the sea but the likelihood of a seaside hobby farm buyer is slim because the land quality is too good, says Mr Hodnett.
A highly productive farm which is extremely well managed, the property at Glenduff, Kilbrittain, has a modern farmyard and a main residence.
Unusually, it is a cedar-clad, three bedroomed bungalow.
Surrounded by lovely gardens, an orchard and mature woodland, it’s set well back from the road and has lots of privacy. The prevailing winds are deflected by a shelter belt of trees, and the farmland stretches to either side of and behind the house and yard.
The property is being offered in lots by the selling agent.
Lot A is the entire property.
Lot B is 32 acres with 34,692 gallons of quota.
Lot C is 11 acres with 12,394 gallons of quota.
The final lot is just under five acres of land.
There is an old stone ruin on the land. This might be parlayed into a residential planning permission, says Mr Hodnett.
The sale, by private treaty, includes entitlements.
