Acres of potential in Kilcullen

A DERELICT cottage and a good yard come with the sale of top quality land at Moortown Castle, Kilcullen, Co Kildare.

That’s according to Paddy Jordan of Jordan Town and County Estates, who’s selling the 87-acre holding at auction on May 21.

The well-sheltered farm is laid out in 12 divisions. It also comes under the Elton soil series and this particular limestone-based land is ideal for bloodstock, he adds.

While the residence is not in good condition, there’s potential to raze it and build a more substantial dwelling, he says, subject to planning permission.

The yard includes a four-span, slatted shed and a large machinery shed that could convert to an American barn, says the agent.

The farm has a central roadway and good shelter throughout the property, carrying a pre-auction price of “in excess of €1.4m”.
