78-acre Tipperary farm with Georgian residence to attract a crowd
Coming up for public auction on Friday, September 5, in the Clubhouse Hotel in Kilkenny, is a very impressive 78.5-acre holding near the village of Mullinahone, Co Tipperary.
The farm consists of some excellent land and a well-maintained period Georgian property. This should ensure an interest level from across the board, as the central location of the holding, between the M8 and the M9, means it is under two hours' drive both to Cork and Dublin.
Kilkenny-based auctioneer Pat Gannon describes the unique holding as a captivating country residence set amid prime farmland.
'The lands are of exceptional quality,' said Mr Gannon. 'It's accessed via a scenic, tree-lined driveway from the public road. The approach is both impressive and inviting, with expansive fields flanking either side.'
The house itself — Glenville — is also a star attraction of the holding. It is in good condition throughout, albeit in need of some modernisation. The house has retained many of its original features, including tall sash windows with timber shutters, ornate cornicing and decorative centrepieces.
The farm is being offered in three lots.
Accommodation includes entrance lobby, sitting room, bathroom, living room, kitchen/dining room, laundry, rear hallway and scullery on the ground floor. On the first floor, a landing and hallway leads to four bedrooms and a bathroom.
The property is being offered in a choice of lots, with Lot 1 consisting of the entire holding on 78.5 acres.
Lot 2 consists of 41.5 acres, with top-quality land and includes the residence and a collection of stone outbuildings. These are in need of upgrading but represent great potential with their traditional cut-stone design built around a farmyard.
Lot 3 consists of 37 acres of excellent land.
All lots have excellent road frontage onto a number of public roads. Mullinahone is 4km to the south of the farm. Ballingarry is 5.5km to the north and Callan in Co Kilkenny lies 14km to the east of the farm.
This is a unique property that will surely attract a crowd on the day, with an overall price guide of €1.5m.
