Roscommon-based auctioneers REMAX Team Earley has a pair of small grassland farms on the market in east Galway. Both are for sale by private treaty and they are served by a good road network.

The larger of the two is a 20ac property at Newcastle, Aughrim, Ballinasloe. A short distance north of the M6 motorway, the land is all in one block and it has over 550m of road frontage onto two roads.

This property is about 6km west of the village of Aughrim and it’s 3km east of the M6 toll plaza near Cappataggle. There is a guide price of €150,000 on this holding.

The second parcel of land is 15km further north of the land at Newcastle, and consists of approximately 12ac at Fohenagh, Ballinasloe.

The 12ac at Fohenagh has basic cattle handling facilities.

Currently all in grass, it is all in one block and divided into five separate fields by mature hedgerows. There are about 100m of road frontage on it and there are basic cattle handling facilities including a crush, close to the roadside. It would make a good addition to an existing holding.

This land is about 8km south of the R358 road at Caltra, 7km Ahascragh while Ballinasloe is 18km away. Auctioneer Cathal Meares has a guide price of €95,000 on this land.
