A 76ac parcel in one division has come on the market on the Kildare-Laois border at Dunbrinn Lower, Athy. Given the location, and given this is good tillage land, the property will attract a lot of interest from commercial farmers in the surrounding area.

The property is non-residential and has no sheds. It’s located some 3.5km from Athy on the Athy to Carlow road. It is being sold with Single Farm Payment entitlements to the value of approximately €6,500. It’s currently under a crop of winter wheat. There’s access off a laneway and some frontage on to the public road.

There’s a lot of very good land in the wider area. This block is described as “top-quality” by Jordan Auctioneers. They point out that it is classified as Fontstown Series under the soils of Co Kildare, meaning it is of good quality and suitable for any number of uses. The land goes to auction on Friday 21 August at 3pm in the Keadeen Hotel, Newbridge. The guide price is €900,000 for the property, just over €11,800/ac.
