One Cork farm snapped up, another comes on market

The picture above shows some of the best land available in a farm sale at Coolea, Co Cork, which offers 54 acres of land of which 20 acres is good, arable ground according to Killian Lynch.

And the Macroom-based auctioneer has just sealed the deal on a 144-acre farm with a handsome, modern farmhouse a few miles up the road at Derrynasaggart, which made close to its revised guide price of €600,000, he says.

The buyer is believed to be local.
