A 42.47ac holding is on the market near Ballyhaunis in Co Mayo. The farm is at Coogue South and is being sold by DNG Gilligan of Claremorris, by private treaty. The farm is being offered by private treaty in two lots.

Lot 1 is 27.97ac with a derelict house and cattle yard. The land is all in permanent pasture, is fenced, supplied with water and has frontage onto public road.

The yard contains a four-bay single-slatted cattle shed, a silage slab and a cattle handling unit consisting of a chute crush with a holding pen. The site has an ESB connection.

To find this lot, with Coogue National School to the right, take the road to the left directly opposite it. Drive for approximately 410m and the land is on the right hand side with the auctioneer’s sign.

Lot 2 is 14.52ac in the same townland. The land is fenced and supplied with water. It has frontage onto public road. There are the ruins of a former house on the land.

The yard contains a four-bay single-slatted cattle shed, a silage slab and a cattle handling unit consisting of a chute crush with a holding pen.

To find this lot, with Coogue National School to your right, continue on this road for approximately 480m. The land is on the right hand side with the auctioneer’s sign. The land in both lots is described by the auctioneers as good quality.

The auctioneer is now quoting a guide price for the entire holding – not ones for each of the 2 lots. So the guide price is: €6,000/ac to €7,000/ac.
