Coming up for public auction on Thursday October 8 next with Newbridge-based Jordan Auctioneers is a 21-acre farm, interestingly positioned close to the N7 dual carriageway and Castlewarden Golf Club.

The property is at Blackchurch and Tuckmilltown, around 23km from Dublin City Centre, 15km from the Red Cow, and the M50 and 10km from Naas.

“The surrounding area is exceptionally well served with a range of commercial, retail and leisure facilities,” says selling agent Clive Kavanagh. 

“Citywest Business Campus and shopping centre are approximately 12km away, with Greenogue and Baldonnell Business Parks just 10km.”

In the midst of all these facilities, the quality of the land shines strongly:

“The property comprises an attractive holding of 21 acres of top-quality arable land with extensive road frontage,” adds Clive. “It’s laid out in two well-defined divisions.”

The property is naturally bounded by mature hedgerows with access to the Slane River. The ground is productive and well maintained, suitable for a wide range of agricultural or alternative uses.

“The overall quality and versatility of the lands make this a superb opportunity for purchasers seeking a substantial and well-balance holding,” says Clive.

The auction takes place at the Keadeen Hotel in Newbridge — a venue that has witnessed a number of successful auctions in recent years.

The farm will be offered in lots: Lot 1 (6 acres) has a guide of €200,000 (€33,000/acre); Lot 2 (14.5 acres) is guiding €350,000 (€24,000/acre). The guide price for Lot 3 (the entire) is €550,000 (€26,200/acre).
