A fine 155ac farm has come up for sale in Westmeath.

Cornaher Farm is just 2km from the picturesque village of Tyrellspass and the towns of Mullingar and Kinnegad are 20km and 25km away, respectively. It is within easy access of the M6 and M4, with a direct route to Dublin city and airport.

The land is being sold through Goffs Property and comes with an asking price of €1,775,000 including stamp duty. Goffs may potentially bring it to auction in the near future depending on interest but at the moment it is up for private sale.

The farm

The farm is divided by excellent hedgerows into eight plots and comes with a farmyard and cattle handling facilities. The residence and farmyard are off the road and are accessed via a long and winding laneway. The house, which sits on elevated land, overlooks the surrounding countryside without sacrificing any privacy.

It comes with 15ac of mature woodland but most of the holding is ideal for grazing cattle. It may be suited to other agricultural use as well.

The holding has great land for pasture as well as good drainage.

The plots are well divided with hedgerows.

A small patch of woodland comes with the property.

There are several old stone outbuildings and some modern farm buildings including good slatted sheds which can accommodate up to 200 cattle. In addition, there are sheds with lean-tos, a machinery shed and silage area. The yard has been well maintained.

All sporting rights, standing timber and minerals insofar as they are owned, are included in the freehold sale.

The farmyard has a lot of facilities and sheds

The property is divided up into multiple fields and is suitable for different agricultural ventures.

Access to the property is provided by a long and winding laneway.

House

There is a detached two-storey house on the land. Built in 1815, it is in need of extensive refurbishment.

The accommodation includes six ensuite bedrooms and it has mains, well water, septic tank and electricity.

There is the potential to develop a B&B business on the property. Some of the buildings at the back were previously converted into apartments.

The agent says it is “an excellent grazing farm that is well drained and sheltered by good stands of mature trees. While there is limited road frontage, the farm is very much a self-contained unit.”

The property is BER exempt. Viewing is strictly by appointment. The selling agents, Goffs can be contacted at +353 (0)45 981 048. CL
