In a region where land parcels tend to be smaller and fragmented, sizeable blocks are a rare find, which is why this 61ac roadside holding in Tobber, Granard, Co Longford has strong appeal.
Sitting in an elevated position, the farm benefits from scenic views of the surrounding countryside, looking down on to Lough Gowna. Currently in tillage, the productive land is laid out in large divisions with no waste, and benefits from mature hedgerow boundaries. In the absence of farm buildings, the holding is easily maintained and would be suitable as an outfarm for established farmers requiring additional silage production or grazing capacity.
Offering 750m of road frontage and situated close to existing one-off houses, the plot may hold potential for development, subject to the necessary planning requirements.
Located 5km from Granard town, Co Longford, the farm has access to a range of retail and leisure amenities, including the nearby Granard Mart. The N55 road linking Co Westmeath and Co Cavan also passes nearby, providing good connectivity.
Guided at €1m, the farm will go under the hammer on Friday 14 August at 3pm in the Bank Business Hub, Market Street, Granard, Co Longford.
Terry Drake of Drake Auctioneering anticipates strong local interest at auction, while the versatility and potential of the land are already attracting enquiries from farmers and businesspeople outside of the locality.
