Situated just a few miles from Athenry town, and very accessible to the M6 motorway, a large block of 128 acres has come to market.

Rockfield, Athenry is offered for sale by auctioneer Pat Callanan Property Sales Ltd.

This agricultural holding, which is known locally as the Blyth Estate extends over 128.67ac of excellent-quality agricultural lands in permanent pasture and a small area of mature woodland.

The farm is laid out in large fields, nearly all of which are bound by large mature trees, giving the farm an estate type feel and adding significant character.

Access

The entrance to the farm is by a gate lodge house and large peers. The main entrance is a shared one with the main road veering left for the farm.

The main driveway to the farm is in need of some slight repair, but with stone walls on either side, it is picturesque.

To the right of the main roadway, there is an old farmyard, which is in need of modernisation. The yard is nestled in a tree-lined garden, and is situated near the centre of the farm.

The yard consists of a number of agricultural outbuildings which include an overground slurry store, a cubicle shed (which is in need of repair) and an outdoor slatted tank and an old silage base.

The land

The land is of good quality and the farm is suitable for a number of enterprises such as equine, cattle, tillage or even dairy farming.

While the land is of good quality overall, some areas of the farm would require some reseeding works and some fencing. Of the total area of the farm, there are some woodland areas which amount to over 14 acres.
