€13.6k/acre sought for 29-acre parcel of fertile Wexford coast
Selling agent Niall Slattery said: “It has extensive frontage overlooking the picturesque Balynamona Beach and the sea.'
A prime piece of land on the sandy Wexford coastline is new to the market with Gorey-based auctioneers Warren Estates.
The 29.5-acre holding is at Ballynamona, 5km south of Kilmuckridge and 24km east of Enniscorthy. With the M11 just half an hour away, it’s a land parcel that combines fertility with aesthetic beauty.
“It enjoys a superb coastal setting,” says selling agent Niall Slattery. “It has extensive frontage overlooking the picturesque Balynamona Beach and the sea.
“The lands are laid out in a number of well-defined fields with established natural boundaries. About 20 acres of it is in tillage and it’s a parcel that offers considerable potential for a variety agricultural and amenity uses.”
It is a rare opportunity for someone to acquire a substantial coastal holding and there’s no doubt that although it offers good land in the first instance, there may be further opportunity given the popularity of this coveted coastline.
Curracloe Beach lies 10km or so to the south of Ballynamona Beach. This was famously used to star as Omaha Beach in Normandy in the opening scenes of the American film in 1997 (as well as in 2015), forever placing it on the global map.
It’s all part of a virtually unbroken stretch of beach that runs almost 30km from Cahore Point down to Raven Point.
The price guide on the property is €400,000. At €13,600 per acre, it’s a reasonable and tempting price for an attractive parcel of tillage land in Wexford.
