Prime 68-acre grazing farm near Graignamanagh set for auction
The farm is for sale by public auction and lies in a single block of quality grazing land
A 68-acre non-residential grassland holding at Coolroe, Graignamanagh, Kilkenny has been drawing strong interest since coming to market.
The farm is for sale by public auction and lies in a single block of quality grazing land. There is no yard or animal handling facility included, but the property offers an ideal grazing platform for farmers seeking to expand.
Located just over 2km from Graignamanagh village, it sits in a well-regarded farming district in the south-east. New Ross is about 20 minutes by car, with Kilkenny and Waterford approximately 29km and 43km respectively.
Regarding demand, auctioneer John Fogarty of RE/MAX Property Specialists says: “Interest has been extremely positive since it went on the market. That’s from locals but, as with larger holdings, the radius stretches as bigger blocks appeal to more farmers. We’ve also had enquiries from expats with local connections who are looking to purchase an Irish property. I’ve fielded calls from as far away as the United States and Australia about this farm already.”
Recent sales in the area have been around €15,000 per acre, so we expect this to perform along similar lines.
Unless previously sold, the auction will take place at 3pm on Friday, September 5 at the Brandon House Hotel, Southknock, New Ross, Wexford.
