A 20ac block of land is on sale along the banks of the Grand Canal at Waterstown, Sallins in Co Kildare. It will be auctioned by O’Neill & Co.

Waterstown is approximately 3km from Sallins village and 4km from Naas town. The M7 motorway can be accessed nearby at junctions 9 and 9a. The land is close to the Leinster Aqueduct and Digby Bridge, two well-known landmarks.

The 20ac holding is rectangular in shape and laid out in two divisions. It is currently in permanent pasture and is well fenced. The ground is well sheltered with natural hedgerow and trees. There is a cattle handling unit, including cattle crush, at the rear of the holding.

The land has road frontage at both ends. At one end, it fronts onto the public road running along the canal. In addition, there is access at the other end on to a laneway which runs on to Digby Bridge.

The auction will take place on Wednesday 16 June at 3pm on the property, unless it’s previously sold. In line with current COVID-19 guidelines, pre-registration is required to attend the auction.

The guide price is €350,000 to €375,000.
