The property is located on an isolated side of the mountain with no passing traffic. It would ideally suit someone who is looking to escape the “stress, hustle, bustle and traffic” of more central locations.

Jeremiah Colbert noted on his visit “the wild holly berries, something that the market traders and young entrepreneurs have made extinct in the more accessible areas, hinting at the authenticity of this locations unspoilt nature”.

The circa 30ac is laid out in 11 divisions. They are bounded by a stream to the north, as well as a wealth of trails and mountain tracks and walks.

The land comes with a two-storey, old stone house and a number of outbuildings. However, they have lain untouched for the last decade and so would require extensive remodelling.

Jeremiah Colbert noted: “The price reflects the state of repair and poor quality of the land, but the quantity more than compensates.”

There is plenty of opportunity for further development, without the constraints of residency clauses or housing control zones.

“The property offers adventure and a dramatic change of lifestyle within a commute,” commented the agent.

The property is for sale by private treaty and the guide price is €120,000. Viewing is highly recommended and strictly by appointment only.
