Strong interest in 112-acre farm with forestry options outside Macroom

Flush on the astonishing success of the recent auction of a 49-acre residential farm close to Coachford, another fascinating afternoon is in store at the Castle Hotel in Macroom on December 17 next, when a 112-acre residential farm comes under the hammer with Killian Lynch Auctioneers.

The property is very well located on the outskirts of Macroom.

It’s is accessed via a laneway and is all in one block, divided into two sections by approximately 20 acres of forestry land, with a farm roadway leading to both of these sections. The farm has a good water supply throughout.

“The land comes in two tiers,” says Killian.

“There are about 55 acres in the top tier, the forestry section and then there are parts of mature woodland spread out across the property too.

"The entire holding is suitable for a variety of activities.”

It’s worth bearing in mind for interested parties that the forestry land has 7 years to run and currently brings an annual premium in the region of €3,000 and the entire holding has permission to be turned over entirely to forestry.

Enquiries are strong at the moment, partly due to the fact that it is keenly priced at €480,000 (€4,285/acre).

It’s being offered in one block but the vendor may consider other possibilities in the meantime.
