Sale of almost 100 acres likely to exceed €750,000

Beautiful area, beautiful farm — but what will be the outcome of this once-in-a-lifetime sale?

This almost 100-acres farm at Carriganear, Skibbereen, is well known locally, and is renowned for the quality of its land, which is why auctioneer Charlie McCarthy is expecting huge interest.

He’s very familiar with the ground — his father having been close to the previous owner, and the auctioneer would have been around the farm a lot in his youth.
