Offers already in for top-quality 65-acre East Cork farm
The holding has mains water and mains electricity available throughout. The property doesn’t have road frontage but a short clear right-of-way from the main road.
New to the market with Midleton-based auctioneer, David Keane, is a 65-acre farm just off the N25 (Cork-Waterford main road).
The farm is at Knocknaskagh, midway between Killeagh and Castlemartyr (3km from either), 14km from Youghal and 14km from Midleton.
“This is 65 acres of top-quality land in a good warm location,” says David. “It’s all in grass and there are no buildings of any kind on it.”
This part of East Cork is a fertile part of Munster, characterized by rich deep soil where the dairy sector dominates the agricultural scene. Over recent years, strong prices have been part of the story on a consistent basis.
With the proximity of the large markets in nearby Cork City (just over half an hour away), this rural heartland holds a lot of economic advantages that feed into a vibrant local agricultural industry.
The holding has mains water and mains electricity available throughout. The property doesn’t have road frontage but a short clear right-of-way from the main road.
There’s no doubt that there will be active competition for this sizeable, top-quality land parcel – from both local interest and beyond.
In fact, there are already offers on the table for this rare holding, but not enough to satisfy the current price expectation which is in the region of €1,600,000 (€25,000/acre).
