DESCRIPTION:

THE LANDS:
This is one of the best farms to come on the market for some time.   Laid out in 16 large divisions all in one block, intersected by a country road.  All in permanent pasture with tremendous shelter and mature timber, it has a natural water supply to most divisions, an internal road system and extensive road frontage giving easy access to all divisions.  

The lands are classified under the Patrickswell Series in the Soils of Co. Laois which form some of the  most important soils in the county suitable for tillage and grazing.  It is predominantly limestone with an admixture of sandstone.  The soils have a wide use range, with their medium texture, good structure
 and friability they are easily tilled and can produce excellent yields of cereals, potatoes, sugar beet and other root and vegetable crops.  They are also highly suitable for grass production and a high output can be obtained especially in new leys.

The entire boundary is fenced by electric fence with mature hedgerows separating the internal divisions
giving excellent shelter to the entire farm.

Total Entitlements c. €65,000.

GENERAL:

 

This is one of the finest blocks of land to come on the market in recent times.  In the one family for over 50 years, it is well known in the locality as one of the best fattening farms in the area.  While it is all currently in permanent pasture it is also suitable for tillage purposes.  Being top quality limestone land, with tremendous shelter in our opinion it is ideally suitable as a stud farm or dairy farm.

 

AMENITIES: in the area include:-
Hunting:  Laois, Kildares and North Kilkenny
Racing:  Curragh, Gowran Park, Punchestown, Kilbeggan
Golf: Tullamore, Heritage, Mountrath, Garryhinch, The Heath
Shooting: Good rough shooting in Slieve Blooms
