€15,000/ac price guide for 35-acre East Cork holding
Some of the quality grassland on the 35-acre farm at Ballinaglogh West, Carrignavar, Co Cork.
A high-quality land parcel in a sought-after corner of Munster is new to the market with Fermoy-based auctioneers Dick Barry & Son.
“It’s a lovely piece of ground,” said selling agent Michael Barry.
The 35-acre grassland holding in one lot is in the townland of Ballinaglogh West, 5km from the village of Carrignavar and 4km south of the village of Glenville, with Watergrasshill and the M8 9km to the east.
“It’s rural, but as rural areas go, it’s a very desirable area for selling land because it’s a very intensive dairy-farming area, and for the likes of those looking for some hobby farming, you’re only a short distance (16km) from Cork City. There’s a very good range of farm buildings on it too, which are immaculately kept.”
The well-maintained farmyard includes a three-column hay shed with a double lean-to and two detached three-bay sheds – all well-secured and in very good condition. There’s also a cattle crush and gathering pen.
“It’s all very well fenced and laid out,” added Mr Barry. “It’s all good land throughout and there was a house on it at once stage… the gable end is still there, which may be of some assistance to someone thinking of getting planning permission.”
There is a power supply and private water supply. The price guide is a very reasonable €15,000/acre.
