Located in Hayestown and Carnuff Little, Deanhill Hayes, Navan, Co Meath, 86 acres of top-quality land was withdrawn from public auction recently. Guided just north of €1m or €12,000/acre, the property did not reach its estimate and was withdrawn. It is now being sold privately. Irish Country Living understands that negotiations are ongoing between interested parties.

Well laid out and in good condition, the ground is ideal for just about any enterprise. Offered in one lot, the circa 86.6 acres is predominantly grassland with the balance in tillage. This amounts to circa 50 acres in grass, with circa 13 acres of this in new grass and the remainder as tillage. This tillage ground is currently in stubble. Some heavy ground can be identified on the holding. Previously farmed by a tillage and beef farmer, the sale is being handled by Smith Harrington of Navan.
