Seventy-acre Cork farm is 'one to watch'

The farm includes a three-bedroom detached cottage-style farmhouse in need of refurbishment and some outbuildings

The 70-acre farm at Ballygibbon with about 13 acres of forestry.

The lands just north of Cork city have constituted a very intense area of farming and land exchange over the last decade. As the boundaries of the city extend, the upward pressure on agricultural land prices increases.

In this context, a 70-acre holding in the townland of Ballygibbon, near Blarney will be one to watch over the coming weeks.
