A 55ac residential holding has come to the market at Castle Lawn, Clogrennane, about 4km from Carlow town. Brought to auction by REA Dawson in Tullow, it includes a modern four-bedroom house with the land laid out around it in one block.
The house was built around 16 years ago and has been kept in excellent condition. It has a B3 BER rating and is set up as a straightforward family home. The rooms are well sized and the layout is practical rather than showy. It sits to the front of the holding, with the land running back behind it. From the house, you are looking straight out over your own ground rather than into neighbouring properties.
Old and new
The property is on lands that once formed part of the entrance to Clogrennane House, now in ruins nearby. That still comes through in how the place is set out.
The approach and the positioning of the house feel tied into that older layout, even if the building itself is modern.
Most of the land is behind and to the side of the house. It is all in grass and described as good-quality grazing.
The fields run into each other without awkward breaks and are easy to move through. Boundaries are clear and the ground appears to have been well kept over time. It is the kind of block that would not take much organising on a day-to-day basis.
The property is on lands that once formed part of the entrance to Clogrennane House.
As the ground moves forward, it meets the River Barrow along the front boundary. That gives the property a clear edge and a bit of separation from the surrounding area. It also opens up the front of the holding, so it does not feel boxed in. To the rear, the Killeshin Hills rise up behind the land, which gives a sense of direction across the farm.
The sale includes a modern four-bed house with the land laid out in one block.
At 55ac, it is a workable size. There is enough ground there to operate as a standalone unit, but not so much that it becomes difficult to manage. Having it all in one block around the house is a big part of that. It is a straightforward holding in that sense.
The house itself does not require any immediate work. That shifts the focus onto how the land is used rather than on upgrading the building. For some buyers, that will be a deciding factor.
The 55.1ac residential property at Clogrennane, Carlow is due to sell at auction in the middle of May.
Location is another part of the appeal. Being about 4km from Carlow town puts it within easy reach of shops, schools and services. At the same time, once you are on the property, it feels separate from the town.
The property is for sale in five lots. Lot 1 consists of the residence on 1.22ac, Lot 2 is 15ac while Lot 3 is the residence on 17.1ac – essentially Lot 1 and Lot 2 combined. Lot 4 is 37.8ac while Lot 5 is the entire on 55ac.
Guided between €1.3m to €1.5m, it will go under the hammer by public auction at the Woodford Dolmen Hotel, Co Carlow on Thursday 14 May at 3pm.
