40-acre non-residential farm in Clonmel made €740,000

In spite of caution in the farmland market, a public auction of a 40-acre non-residential farm near Clonmel in South Tipperary last week bucked the trend. The property in Ballyvaughan (3km from Clonmel) was equally divided between tillage and grass, containing two fields of 20 acres each.
According to selling agent Pat Quirke of Clonmel-based PF Quirke & Company, the good quality property was offered in three lots — the tillage field first, the grass field second, and then the entire holding.
