Several large Cork dairies have come to the market in recent months, underlining the appetite from established farmers looking to trade up to larger, more efficient holdings, and Brittas House is well-placed to meet that demand.

For sale by private treaty with Liam Murphy Auctioneers, the 90ac residential dairy farm in Brittas, Lombardstown, Co Cork is well-equipped and ready-to-work.

At the heart of the holding is a spacious three-bedroom family farmhouse, which is in very good condition throughout.

To the rear of the house, the gated concrete yard offers ample hardstanding, and several stone sheds provide storage and workshop space.

Leading on from this area is the dairy yard, which includes a slatted unit with central feed passage and calving accommodation, a cubicle shed, a calf house, cattle shed and hay shed.

Dairy facilities include a nine-unit herringbone parlour and collection yard with automatic feeders, a large capacity bulk tank and two feed bins. The yard also benefits from a covered silage pit, a silage slab and an open slurry pit.

Set out in easily worked divisions, the land is good-quality and all in pasture. Accessed via a central roadway, all fields are fenced and serviced by water. BISS entitlements are also available.

Situated in the townland of Brittas, the farm is located just outside Lombardstown village, home to Dairygold’s Lombardstown Mill.

The Co Cork towns of Mallow and Kanturk are less than 15km away, with both offering an extensive range of agricultural, retail and leisure amenities.
