A 33-acre residential farm in lots

An attractive package at Ballinakill, Ballinamult, Co Waterford, is on offer through Christy Buckley.

A 33-acre residential farm in lots

The Cork auctioneer is selling the 33-acre, residential roadside farm in one, two or three lots, and says it’s a fine place, with an attractive aspect.

The bulk of the land is gently sloping southwards towards a glen, and there’s excellent road frontage attached to the nine fields.

The house can be sold separate from the land, and it’s in good condition, with two of its three bedrooms en-suite, and a range of living rooms, including a dedicated office space.

The property is ideal as a hobby farm, says Christy Buckley, and the land is good quality, in sheltered and easily worked fields.

The house can be sold on its own or with four acres of land to the north of the yard, which is in two fields on either side of a secondary road. One field is used for fattening free-range pigs.

The house and two fields are offered in one lot, at €250,000, and the entire is priced at €500,000.

The yard includes an attractive, white-washed outhouse and a modern shed with workshop and cattle crush.

The location is close to the village of Ballinakill, and less than 10 miles from Dungarvan.

nMeanwhile, Christy Buckley has just concluded two Co Cork farm sales at Ballyclough and at Gurranes, Donoughmore.

The first, at Ruanes, Mallow, is a 70-acre drystock and tillage farm with exceptional road frontage on three sides.

There was considerable interest in the property, says Buckley, and it went sale-agreed at the end of last week, but he wasn’t prepared to confirm the sale price until contracts are fully exchanged.

It’s likely the land made close to its price of more than €500,000, and the buyer is believed to be local.

The old-fashioned, 31.5-acre farm at Donoughmore is also sale agreed, at a phenomenal, €480,000, including an old house and yard.

That’s €15,238 per acre.

In need of considerable attention, the house would, nevertheless, repay restoration, and the land is top quality, says Buckley.

The buyer is believed to be local, but based in America.
