The farm is being offered in the entire or in two separate lots, with the residence on circa 0.7 acres and the remaining circa 51 acres.

The lands is currently all under permanent pasture and is described as “premium-quality fattening lands”. The current owner has meticulously maintained the lands and has divided the farm into two main divisions.

The cottage is ideally located at the end of a cul-de-sac, offering excellent privacy from mature boundaries. There is also a collection of old barns and hay sheds to the rear of the residence. The entire comes with a guide price of €530,00
