SOUTH View Farm at Tullyweel, Kilmainham­wood in Co Meath is a dormer bungalow set on 20.8ac and comes with a comprehens­ive modern cattle yard. In a sale handled by Quillsen the place is on the private treaty market with a guide price of €550,000.

Located on the Kingscourt to Kells road the holding is 3.8km from Kilmainham­wood, 4.8km from Kingscourt and 19km from Kells.

The house is a modern dormer residence extending to 2,660 sq ft built in the last two years and completed to the highest specificat­ion. The accommodat­ion includes an entrance hall, a living room with a solid fuel stove and double-glazed panel doors leading to the spacious kitchen/dining room.

Double glazed panel doors lead to the south facing sunroom and other spaces on the ground floor include a fully equipped utility, a guest WC an ensuite bedroom along with a room that could be used as an office or a bedroom.

Upstairs is a master bedroom with ensuite facilities, a second ensuite bedroom, a double bedroom and a family bathroom.

Out of doors a wide range of buildings includes a garage with an electric roller door and a machinery shed, also with an electric roller door. In an older section of the yard there is a three-roomed cottage with an extension that is in good structural condition along with a number of traditiona­l stone buildings.

Farm accommodat­ion also includes top-class facilities centred around a five-bay slatted shed with a creep area and feeding passage.

Cattle handling facilities with a cattle crush and a calving gate are set on a concrete yard to the rear.

The land is mainly laid out in five fields under permanent pasture, recently reseeded. A stock proof post and wire fence runs along the entire boundary with good road frontage. Across the road is a small portion of scrub ground giving road frontage on two sides.

Eamonn Shields of Quillsen says this is a compact residentia­l farm in top-class condition that could make a fine hobby farm with rural tourism potential.
