A well-placed block of land has come on the market at Cratloekeel, Co Clare. The 45ac parcel is midway between Cratleo and Limerick city and it bounds the N18 plus another local road. It has been brought to the market by auctioneers DNG Creedon and it goes for auction on Thursday 8 October.

The land is laid out in one self-contained parcel. Some 29ac of it is elevated ground and top quality while 16ac is described by DNG Creedon as suitable for grazing.

Auctioneer Shane Finn said: “This is a rare opportunity to purchase a good 45ac parcel of land in this area. It is quite a sizable holding for any farmer looking to expand. Limerick city is just 8.2km away and Shannon 14km.”

As well as the N18 the land has road frontage on its north side on to a local road. The reserve price for the holding is €360,000.
