- JIM O’BRIEN

A 53.5AC residentia­l farm with a substantia­l farmyard located between Bansha and Cahir in Co Tipperary will attract a lot of attention when it comes to auction in September. The sale is guided at between €7,000 and €9,000/ac.

The farm is located in the townslands of Cappauniac and Ballydavid at Bansha and the executor sale will see the property sold in a variety of lots.

The bungalow residence was built in 1998 and is described by Tipperary auctioneer Noel Corcoran as being in fine condition.

The accommodat­ion includes a sun porch, kitchen/dining area, a sitting room, three bedrooms, a bathroom and a garage. The windows are in PVC double-glazing and the heating is provided by oil-fired central heating. The farmyard contains an impressive array of facilities including a small slatted shed, a two-column haybarn with a lean-to, a 20-unit slatted cow byre, a cattle crush and cattle handling facilities.

Farmhouse

The farm also contains a traditiona­l two-story residence, the original farmhouse, in need of complete refurbishm­ent.

The lands are made up of prime grazing ground with a parcel of 44ac at Cappauniac laid out in nine fields with an independen­t water supply.

At auction the place will be offered in a number of combi- nations and lots.

The first lot will comprise of the house and garage on 1ac, the next parcel will include the house, farm buildings and yard on 34.36ac.

A further lot is a 9.56ac parcel of ground known as O’Donnell’s and this comes with the old residence.

This parcel is in three fields with an independen­t water supply and, according to Noel Corcoran, it would make an ideal site for a residence subject to the required planning permission.

The fourth lot will be made up of the house, farm buildings and lands extending to 44ac at Cappauniac.

The final lot is a parcel of 9.53ac located 3km away at Ballydavid, Bansha.

The holding comes with €6,700 in a basic farm payment

Mr Corcoran describes this as a fine farm of land and says interest is very keen in advance of the public auction to be held at Cahir House Hotel on Thursday, September 21 at 3pm.
