Auctions were where much of the sales activity was for the Irish market in 2014 — with Shame and Hunger actor Michael Fassbender among those showing an appetite for a slice of the action. 

A total of €1.7 million was transacted in just 30 minutes this week at the latest Resolve auction.

THERE could be a bun-fight for this 42-acre holding in Blarney — because it’s located close to serious farmers.

I HAVE read all the reasons given by members of the public and our government why the Queen of England should be invited to visit our city and country.

A 22-ACRE parcel of land at Callatrim, Bandon, Co Cork, which includes a two-bedroom cottage, failed to sell at auction and is now for sale by private treaty.

MR DENIS Barrett of Carrigtwohill was not the purchaser of land at Killahora, Glounthaune as incorrectly stated on these pages last week.

KILLAHORA House at Glounthaune, Co Cork, set a new €18,000 per acre level at auction just before Christmas, and now, the last lot of this residential farm has been sold.

THE view, the view, the view. Cork city’s down in a saucer-like setting, but you have to go up its surrounding hills to really appreciate it. The owners of The Three Gables know it better than most.

FORTY acres with a “good nature” will go to auction today in O’Shea’s Bar, Milltown, Co Kerry.

A READY-to-go hobby farm, or an addition for a neighbouring farmer, is how this 24-acre holding at Bawnmore, Kanturk, is being pitched by Denis Barrett of Barrett Cahill Property Consultants.

THE last time I visited Rochestown Wood House was in June, 2003, and I described it then as having a lovely feel.

SIT down, take a deep breath, and repeat, ‘€47,000 per acre, €47,000 per acre.’
