A 129ac block of north Co Dublin farmland is for sale, near St. Margaret’s village. The land at Dunsoghly is top quality and currently used for tillage and grass.

However, its location means that it is likely to attract the attention of developers and business people – and it is also contributing to a guide price of almost €35,000/ac.

The land lies between the M2 motorway and Dublin Airport. It is approximately 1km from the grounds of Dublin Airport and 6.5km from the terminals.

The land is zoned objective Green Belt under the Fingal Development Plan 2023 to 2029. However, the auctioneers say that the land is ideally located to benefit from a potential re-zoning in future years, to allow for industrial use.

The land lies in seven main fields and has good hedge boundaries. The guide price is €4.5m and this is a private treaty sale.
