25-acre North Cork farm guiding €12k-€13k/acre
The holding has a traditional farmyard which has a selection of outbuildings, along with a former farmhouse that needs complete renovation and which may well qualify for the Vacant Property Refurbishment Grant and the Derelict Property Grant.
New to the market with Mallow-based O’Connell Auctioneers is a quality 25-acre farm at Gortnascregga, near Freemount, Co. Cork.
“It’s a nice warm piece of ground,” says selling agent John O’Connell. “It’s a very good land parcel, there’s no waste in it.”
The location is good, situated just off the Freemount-Kanturk road, 10km north of Kanturk, 20km southwest of Charleville and 2.5km from the village of Freemount.
“There’s a lot of road frontage with it and it’s split into two sections,” says John.
The holding has a traditional farmyard which has a selection of outbuildings, along with a former farmhouse that needs complete renovation and which may well qualify for the Vacant Property Refurbishment Grant and the Derelict Property Grant.
“The house hasn’t been lived in for a number of years,” says John, underlining the potential that such an asset brings, combined with the Government schemes at the moment.
“This is a rare opportunity to acquire a well-located farm with residential potential in a sought-after rural setting,” adds John. “The lands are suitable for a range of agricultural enterprises and will appeal to both established farmers seeking an additional parcel of land and first-time purchasers looking to establish their own holding.”
This is in the heart of the cradle of the Irish co-operative movement and a holding of this size is a perfect one to appeal to the variety of potential buyers in the area, as well as those farther afield.
The price expectation is a reasonable €12,000 - €13,000/acre.
