€495,000 sought for 51-acre biodiverse Kerry farmstead
Located in North Kerry, a 51-acre holding is new to the market with Listowel-based auctioneers Horgan Properties.
The holding is in Knocaunbrack, approximately 12km south of Listowel, 16km from Abbeyfeale, and 21km north of Castleisland.
The property contains a quality dwelling and the lands themselves have somewhat limited usage but which bring in income from a number of schemes for which the lands qualify.
This impressive array of schemes is testament to the conservation efforts of the previous owner and include the Biss (basic income support for farming sustainability), Criss (complimentary redistributive income support for sustainability), ANC (areas of natural constraints) and Echo schemes (support for contribution to EU environmental and climate goals).
'The previous owner built it a number of years ago and extended over time,' says selling agent Mary Horgan.
There's a good road going up to it. It's very secluded and it's a very special kind of place
In times when biodiversity is seen as becoming more and more vital to the health of our country and beyond, such holdings are becoming increasingly attractive for any number of clients.
The guide price is a very reasonable €495,000.
