Quinn Property, has a tidy, 17ac parcel of land in Co Carlow going under the hammer in the middle of February.

In the shadows of Mount Leinster and the Blackstairs Mountains, this land is situated in the centre of Rathanna village and is laid out in three fields divided by mature trees and hedgerows.

The land is currently all in grass and about 14ac of it is considered excellent, free draining land. The balance of it is a heavier soil type land that is close to a water course.

Access to the land from the road is via a laneway that runs between St Fortchern’s Church, Rathanna and Rathanna community hall, with the land to the rear of these buildings.

A view of the holding with views of the mountains.

Given the village location with good access onto the public road, there may be potential for residential development, subject to planning permission.

This property is just over 8km from the village of Borris and just over half an hour’s drive from Carlow town. It is also 6km from Kiltealy, Co Wexford.

The holding is guided at between €10,000/ac to €12,000/ac.

The online auction takes place at 3pm on Wednesday, 19 February on the LSL online platform.
