A circa 40ac non-residential farm close to the M7 motorway is going for auction in December. Listed with REA John Lee, the land at Cooleen, Birdhill, Co Tipperary is described as a prime agricultural holding and is classed as good fattening land.

Highly productive ground, it’s currently all in grass and is in one block. Suitable for any farming enterprise, it is well fenced and ready to go. Access is via a right of way on a tarmac roadway that leads from the R504 road and the property has the M7 motorway running along its southern boundary.

The land quality is one thing but the farms location and the proximity of a number of major roads place this farm as an option for farmers in a wide catchment.

A short distance from both Birdhill and Newport, this farm is also convenient to Ballina/Killaloe, Castleconnell and Limerick city.

Served by a super road network, this tidy grassland holding is expected to sell in the region of €12,000 to €15,000/ac.

The public auction takes place at 3pm on Wednesday, 11 December in the offices of REA John Lee at Main St, Newport, Co Tipperary.
