Orchards do not often come up for sale, although there are approximately 3,500ac of orchards in Northern Ireland. The vast majority of this is in the north Armagh area where the proximity to Lough Neagh creates a temperate microclimate.

The farmyard on the property has been well maintained and is made up of a variety of substantial farm buildings, including a plant room, five gas stores, two silos and a mobile office.

There are solar panels on the dwelling house and farm buildings which currently generate an income of around £4,000 (€4,400) per year.

The two-storey dwelling house includes a lounge, family room, well finished kitchen, sunroom and three bedrooms.
