Described by selling agent Tom Dillon as a top-class agricultural holding, a 38.5 acre holding is new to the market with Listowel-based Dillon Prendeville Auctioneers.

The farm is at Piermount, Carhoona, North Kerry – 2km from Tarbert, 20km from Listowel and 24km from Ballybunion.

“This is an exceptional opportunity,” says Tom. “Situated in the scenic and highly productive district of Piermount, Carhoona, these lands are held in a single, convenient block. They’re of premier agricultural quality, set out in a number of well-proportioned fields. 

"The holding features an elevated and undulating topography that provides natural drainage, making it highly resilient and versatile.

Aside from the land (which has great soil depth and quality), one of the standout features of the property is its extensive road frontage. With direct access onto two public roads, there is maximum flexibility and convenience for moving agricultural machinery and livestock.

The collection of outbuildings features a number of functional buildings. There is a traditional-style farmyard with a versatile assortment of outbuildings, including a hay shed, machinery store (with secured implement and tractor housing),

More importantly, there is a traditional derelict dwelling, along with other stone-built outbuildings, offering potential for the next owner.

Annual entitlements worth over €2,400 come with the holding which is guiding €469,000 (€12,200/acre).
