A circa 32ac non-residential farm at Knockbrandon, Gorey, Co. Wexford, will go to public auction in Carnew Mart, lower main street, Carnew, on Wednesday, December 9, at 2:00pm
The property is located just off the R725, main Carnew to Gorey road, 5km from Carnew and 11km from Gorey. It is close to Carnew village with its array of amenities such as shops; schools; restaurants; primary and secondary schools; livestock mart; and many agricultural services.
The land is approached via a laneway and is laid out in a number of divisions, said selling agent, David Quinn.
Currently there are circa 22ac of excellent quality land in tillage with circa 10ac of grassland in need of some improvement works. The land is suitable for most agricultural uses.
“There is a natural water course running along the western boundary of the holding and it has mature timber throughout. There was a traditional stone-built farmhouse on the lands which offers potential for a residential property, subject to the relevant planning permission.”
The 32ac farm has been rented for a number of years and the vendor has decided to sell at this stage. The guide price is: €280,000 to €300,000 for the entire property.
Land sales and demand in this area are strong, according to David Quinn. He is anticipating keen interest in this 32ac property from local farmers looking to expand their existing holdings as well as families looking for a compact rural holding.
