There’s roughly seven acres of a glen, most of which is brush and scrub. A further 14 acres of this land block were once grazed but haven’t been farmed in a number of years.

These parcels outside the grazing land could be a useful asset to any farmer tight on their space for nature area that form part of the eco-scheme measures for the new CAP.

Lot 2 consists of c6 acres of agricultural lands located below the L2015 Tralee to Lyrecrompane Rd. This holding is divided into similar sized fields by an access road to local properties.

A short distance away is the final parcel, Lot 3, a c12 acre grass field with good natural boundaries and over 200m of frontage on to the Kielduff road.

The residence is an old-style single-storey stone-built property that consists of two bedrooms.

There are 20 Basic Payment Scheme units available and the lands can be purchased with or without these units. The value of these entitlements is expected to rise from c€4,500 to €5,000 over the duration of the new CAP.
