45-acre South Wexford farm for auction guiding at €16k/acre
Coming under the hammer on Tuesday, July 1, at the Ballinaboola Hotel outside New Ross in County Wexford is a 45-acre quality farm at Ballinruane – 16km to the south of the auction site.
The auction will also be accepting bids online but the experience of auctioneers around the country is that when a hybrid auction such as this takes place, the main action is normally concentrated on the floor rather than via the internet.
In any case, what's on offer is sure to entice – a substantial quantity of good grassland in a year when land parcels of this size have been scarce, according to selling agent Anne Carton of New Ross-based P N O'Gorman Auctioneers.
'It's all in permanent pasture… four to five units in very good condition with water laid on,' says Anne.
'It's an ideal size and surrounded by a couple of dairy farms. It was an outside farm and it's being sold as an executor sale. There's been good interest, so hopefully it will go well.'
The price guide is in the region of €16,000/acre. It's one that should be achievable on the day.
