73-acre farm in North Cork guiding €15k/acre
The farm is 2km south of Rathcormac, with a long stretch of road frontage onto the R639 and almost adjacent to the M8.
New to the market with Fermoy-based auctioneers Michael Barry & Son, a 73-acre farm close to Rathcormac and the M8 Dublin-Cork motorway offers a substantial parcel of quality grassland in a convenient setting.
Located at Curraghteemore, the farm is 2km south of Rathcormac, with a long stretch of road frontage onto the R639 and almost adjacent to the M8, with Junction 16 just beside it.
According to the selling agent Michael Barry, the land is all of good quality, is well laid out and fenced, with water and electricity laid on. There is also a gathering pen and crush on the land.
“The location of the place is very good,” says Mr Barry. “You’re only 15 minutes from Cork. It should generate a good bit of interest… you might have farmers interested from different disciplines.”
In this area, there is a healthy mixture of dairying, beef, tillage, and a very active horse breeding scene.
“You could have a dairy farmer or an investor interested in this holding, or even people from the equine sector looking for land in a good location. It really ticks all those boxes.”
With two very good entrances, it makes the farm ideal for using one part and letting the other.
“We’re guiding the farm at a realistic price of €15,000 per acre,” Mr Barry says. Demand should be strong for this smart quality farm in a busy part of the Golden Vale, with superb access offering multiple options for whoever will be the next owner.
