€9,000 per acre guide price for grazing land in Co Clare

Just under 2km from the livestock mart in Sixmilebridge, Co Clare, a 33-acre non-residential holding for sale with Niall Gilligan Auctioneers has recently come onto the market, in the townland of Ralahine South, located between Newmarket-on-Fergus and Sixmilebridge.

The asking price is a seemingly modest €300,000 (or €9,000/acre), but farm land in this part of Munster doesn’t command the kind of prices that Golden Vale properties routinely do.

However, the rising tide of a bullish Irish dairying industry may yet have a final say in matters, and this property does have a lot of good quality land, coupled with the potential to improve.
