One of the first auctions of the year for Co Carlow will be conducted by selling agent John Dawson, Tullow, on 2 March next. With an address at Coolnakisha, Leighlinbridge, the 45.88-acre farm bounds the M9 Dublin/Waterford motorway on one side while featuring extensive frontage to a county road on the other.

Described as “a prime piece of arable ground”, the land is currently in tillage and is laid out in three sizeable divisions. A stream located at one end of the land provides a natural water supply. For those familiar with the area, the land is not a million miles away from the Arboretum Garden Centre, which is situated on the old Kilkenny road.

Guided at €10,000/acre, the property is scheduled for auction on 2 March in the Dolmen Hotel, Carlow at 3pm.
