Killarney-based auctioneer, Tom Spillane has a c45ac non-residential farm that is only 15 minutes’ drive from the centre of the famous Kerry town. The land at Knockinanane East, Killarney is for sale by private treaty and the auctioneer says there has been good interest in it to date.

The farm is the second last holding in a cul-de-sac and benefits from a private setting.

About 30ac of it are a mix of open fields and rough grazing and would be suitable for a grazing enterprise or for planting with forestry.

The balance of the land – about one third of it – was planted with Sitka Spruce in the last decade and there are 13 more years’ worth of payments left to run on these. The annual income from this comes to €3,534.

Also included in the sale are 22 entitlements which are valued at €126.50 each. Combined with the forestry premia, the annual payments these generate come to over €6,000 per annum.

This property is well served by a good road network. It’s 7km from Barraduff and the N72 road that links Killarney and Mallow while the N22 road to Macroom is 13km away at Glenflesk.

There is a guide price of €220,000 on this east Kerry farm.
