Farm of 275 acres

IT’S the season for large farm sales and another one hits the hustings in north Cork this week.

Gowlane North, is a bit of a mixed bag, but one with 275 acres, in Donoughmore. It’s an executor sale through joint agents, Paul O’Driscoll of Sherry FitzGerald O’Driscoll and Michael O’Donovan of Sherry FitzGerald O’Donovan and has a total of five lots. In two main blocks, at either side of a main road, the sale includes a farmhouse and yard on one side of a main road, with a 60-acre division opposite.

The second block, about half a mile down the road from the farmhouse, is divided again by the road and comprises, hilly ground with some pasture on one side, and mixed land on the leeward side of the hill.
