A state-of-the-art stud farm with panoramic views of the Limerick countryside and the Galtee mountains is on the market.
Spanning 100ac, Spring Lodge is a turnkey modern stud farm with a guide price of €3m.
Listed with Goffs Property, this stunning equine holding at Manister, Croom, Co Limerick is described as a “wonderful limestone holding with a proven track record of producing world class racehorses."
For sale by private treaty, it is in an excellent location, less than 7km from both the N20 road and Limerick Racecourse. Close to both Adare and Croom, Limerick city is just 15 minutes’ drive away.
A road splits the property in two with circa 39ac, the house and yard on the eastern side and the balance of the land, 61ac, directly across the road.
Surrounded by well-maintained mature hedgerows, the land is presently all in grass and is laid out in 15 well sized divisions all with stock proof fencing with water laid on.
This is top quality, limestone land and is well suited to raising bloodstock but would be equally adept for any arable or grass-based enterprise.
Excellent frontage
Both plots have excellent road frontage, and are accessed via electric security gates and beech hedged driveways
The stud yard catches the eye and is well laid out. A purpose built 20 box courtyard complex is the stand out feature of it and contained within it are a tack room, veterinary box (with stocks), feed room and office.
Additional horse accommodation in the form of 15 loose boxes can be found in a nine-span barn that is to the rear of the main courtyard. Close to that is an eight-span barn with concrete floor.
Also included within the confines of the yard is a six-bay horse walker, lunging ring and an extensive hardcore area.
To the rear of the stables is a nine-span barn, incorporating 15 loose boxes.
The residence is located a short distance from the yard. It's a two-storey farm house with a pair of ensuite bedrooms.
There are 20 boxes in the complex which is accessed via a arched entrance.
The residence consists of a completely renovated and extended two-storey farmhouse with gas-fired central heating. Known as the managers house, it is near the yard and has a separate entrance point. It comprises of a kitchen, open plan dining/living room, bathroom, utility and two bedrooms, both of which are ensuite.
To the rear of the dwelling, there is a derelict single storey building which has full planning permission to be converted into a one bed apartment.
Developed as a breeding complex, it is superbly positioned within one of the ‘hot spots’ of Ireland’s thoroughbred breeding sector being adjacent to Group1 producing stud farms – Rathmore, Croom, Manister, Ballyphilip and Caherass Stud, to name but a few.
This top of the range, stud benefits from a superb infrastructure with a high standard of equipment installed throughout and has an enviable record as a breeding ground for exceptional racehorses.
