Old-fashioned holding ideal for planting

LAID out in three separate blocks, and with 18 acres of good quality grazing land, this old-fashioned residential farm holding at Rathbeg, Rathmore, Co Kerry, is for sale by private treaty through Tom Spillane and Co.

The agent is selling the property in one lot, and is looking for offers in the region of €100,000 for the 34-acre farm and residence. The land at Rathbeg comprises three different blocks: the first is 18 acres, the second is 10 acres of rough grazing and the final lot of four acres is more suitable for forestry.

The main farmhouse is in poor condition, the agent says, and the farm could suit as extra grazing for a local farmer or alternatively, would be ideal for planting.

nTom Spillane is also accepting final offers on The Presbytery, Kilgarvan, a property in the village comprising a Victorian four-bed house and 15 acres.

The property is under offer at €220,000, but the agent is looking to go a little more before agreeing a sale.

With stupendous views, it is being sold by the St Brendan Trust, the episcopal fund which holds Catholic church property in Co Kerry.

Including a four-bedroomed house in an elevated position overlooking the south-west Kerry village, the property has been offered in lots, but is now for sale in the entire, the agent points out.

The land, which surrounds the house, has good quality grass land, Tom Spillane says.

The house comprises an entrance porch, kitchen, living room, sitting room, scullery, office, four bedrooms and a bathroom and is in need of attention: it hasn’t been lived in for over a year, he points out.
