A c87ac farm with farm sheds and a derelict house is for sale near Kiskeam, Co Cork. The property is at Doon and has been brought to the market by CCM Auctioneers. It’s going for auction.
The farm is located 5km from Cullen and Bohebue, and 6km from Knocknagree. It is divided by the public road. The house with a hayshed and a number of outbuildings sit on one side. The main yard is across the road on the other division.
It has been rented out for a number of years but has been well farmed. It is now being sold with vacant possession.
The land is in grass. It is described as mostly good quality with a portion needing improvement work. It is being offered in lots.
Lot 1 is c49.5ac in one block with road frontage. The agents say that c35.5ac is good quality land while c14 is of lesser quality.
Lot 2 is c5.5ac with extensive road frontage. This lot bounds the derelict house and its 1ac site.
Lot 3 is c31.2ac with road frontage. It has a farmyard with two three-bay cubicle sheds, each with a lean-to. There are also two silage pits.
Lot 4 is the derelict farmhouse on c1ac. There is an electrical connection to the house. The house has a lot of character and would make a fine family home if renovated.
The guide price for the land is in the region of €9,000/ac. An offer of €40,000 has been made for the old house on 1ac. The auction will be on Thursday, 19 September at 3pm in Hibernian Hotel, Mallow.
