54-acre West Waterford farm guiding €14k/acre
The 58-acre farm for sale at Carrowgarriff, Cappagh, Co Waterford, 'offers entrepreneurial diary farmers an opportunity to extend their grazing platform'.
Located a short drive north of the N72 and equidistant from Dungarvan and Cappoquin in West Waterford, a 58-acre quality farm holding is new to the market with West Waterford / East Cork land specialist Brian Gleeson Property.
“The property comprises of about 54 acres of top-class agricultural grassland,” Mr Gleeson says. “But there’s also a section of four acres of woodland with silver birch.”
The biodiversity of the property will be music to the ears of most farmers and, with over 50 acres of prime pasture, there will be no shortage of dairy farmers interested in taking a look at this eye-catching farm.
“It has an electricity supply,” Mr Gleeson adds, “as well as its own water supply — the current owner bored a well on the property in 2018.”
All the entitlements are coming with the farm too. Depending on the circumstances of the buyer, such benefits can still carry a significant value and further details can be obtained from the selling agents.
Outbuildings on the property include a three-span hay shed in need of some attention, a three-span lean-to shed with a concrete floor, concrete yard, and silage slab and a crush for testing cattle.
“This is a property that offers entrepreneurial dairy farmers an opportunity to extend their grazing platform,” Mr Gleeson says. “And, such is its location and topography, that it also has the potential to develop into a top-class breeding nursery for thoroughbred horses."
The price guide of €800,000 (€14,000/acre) is a fair reflection of this substantial holding.
