Coming up for auction in early October is a picturesque 103ac residential farm located in Drumman, Slane, Co Meath. The lands are in one large block, but are also being offered in a number of different lots.
The top-quality, free-draining land offers good frontage onto the public roads, with the majority of the land currently under permanent pasture. A 17-acre parcel is in tillage.
There is no stock currently kept on the farm, as has been the case for the past number of years, with the lands used for the production of grass silage.
Drumman House was originally built in the 1700s.
The property will be offered for sale in smaller lots. Drumman House on circa 42ac will make up the first lot. The house was originally built in the 1700s and stands on an elevated site.
Immediately behind the residence is a mature orchard, which is sheltered by extensive and well-maintained, two-storey cut-stone barns laid out in a horse shoe shape. The house has been completely refurbished, with every effort made to retain the period features.
On the ground floor is a bright entrance porch with a tiled floor, leading through to an entrance hall which still boasts the original staircase. The hall is well balanced, with an entrance to the drawing room on one side and the formal dining room on the other. The dining room links to the kitchen via a pantry and the remainder of the ground floor homes an office and a conservatory.
The lodge was completely refurbished approximately 10 years ago.
On the first floor is a landing which is dual-aspect, with two picture windows looking out over the orchard to the rear. Three bedrooms, one of which is en-suite, and the bathroom are accessed via the landing. This lot comes with a guide price of circa €700,000.
The second lot on offer is a 44ac block that is currently under permanent pasture, with mature hedgerows running throughout. Lot number three is made up of 17ac, all of which is currently under tillage. Both of these lots come with a guide price of €10,000/ac.
Lot number four is made up of a second two-bedroom residence. Originally a lodge, the house was completely restored approximately 10 years ago and well finished, with cut-stone walls, timber sash windows, red brick reveals and granite window sills and heads. The residence is located on 0.9ac.
This property has the benefit of a tarmac drive, a storage shed and a good-sized lawn. Internally, the house has also been very well finished. This lot comes with a guide of €280,000 to €300,000.
A 17-acre parcel currently under tillage is one of the lots on offer.
