80-acre farm 13km from Cork city centre goes for auction
Although the selling agents, Dick Barry & Sons, reveal nothing more than cautious optimism about a forthcoming auction of an 80-acre farm near Watergrasshill in East Cork, this is surely going to be a major event, when the holding at Coneybeg goes under the hammer at the Vienna Woods Hotel, Glanmire, on May 29 at 3pm.
The farm is a residential holding, and even though the bungalow was built in the 1960s and is in need of renovation, its presence means this farm will be of interest not only to a large number of farmers, but also to those with pockets deep enough and aspirations of living the good life on a large hobby farm within striking distance of Cork City.
