Kerry farm offers an 'affordable opportunity' at €5,900/acre

Despite the property’s size, there isn’t any plan to split the farm into two lots

The traditional farmhouse on the property is in need of total renovation or of knocking and rebuilding but its existence is a strong asset in this era of a housing shortage.

Following the shortage of land on the market in Kerry over the last year, there seems to be something of a minor surge at the moment. A 44-acre holding at Thoor, near Portmagee on the Iveragh Peninsula has just come on the market with Tralee-based Property Partners Daly Ó Sé.

“It’s a grassland farm with a derelict house on it and it’s about halfway between Cahersiveen and Waterville,” said selling agent Darragh Ó Sé.
