Three bids over €20m for zoned housing land

A PERIOD home set on 150 acres with 80 acres zoned for housing has been sold for €24 million.

The Dunkathel estate in Cork was sold lock, stock and barrel by the Russell family to O’Flynn Construction, one of the south’s leading firms in both commercial and residential development.

Dunkathel House went under the hammer at private auction, attended by at least five bidders, three of whom made offers over €20 million for the property.
