Compact Meath farm guided at €600,000
A FINE 62ac block of land with a derelict residence at Kilglynn, Kilcock in Co Meath is coming for auction with a guide price of €600,000 or just under €10,000/ac.
Located 2km from Kilcock, 8km from Summerhill and 8km from Maynooth the farm is described by Phillip Byrne of Coonans, Maynooth as a superb parcel of land.
Laid out in manageable divisions fenced with whitethorn hedgerow the free-draining ground is in old pasture with decent road frontage.
It was well-maintained over the last few years, is in good heart and suitable for any farming purpose.
A private entrance leads to the house, which is derelict but fully intact with the roof still in place and all the walls solid.
Extending to 1,500 square feet the two-storey dwelling could be made into a fine residence, but the project would require substantial investment.
Adjacent to the house is the yard, made up of dated but useful buildings that include a haybarn with double lean-to and a silage pit.
The holding could make a nice standalone hobby farm or a very fine addition to a current enterprise. Given its location in horsey country, Philip Byrne does not rule out active equestrian interest in the holding.
It comes to auction at the Glenroyal Hotel, Maynooth at 3pm on Thursday, April 19.
