Description

The property will be offered in lots as follows:
Lot 1: Derelict residence on c. 1 acre
Lot 1 comprises of a derelict cut stone residence and outbuilding on a c. 1 acre site. Although the residence is in need of complete renovation, it affords the prospective purchaser an excellent opportunity to re-develop and benefits from electricity on site. As the residence has been vacant for a number of years, the new owners may avail of the Vacant Property Refurbishment Grant. This grant is funded by the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage through the Croi Conaithe (Towns) Fund and you apply to your local authority. The grant provides funding for the refurbishment of vacant and derelict homes. One can get a grant of up to 70,000 if the property is derelict.

This holding benefits from two access points and if bought in its entirety, there is immense potential for the new owners to incorporate an avenue leading from the secondary Curraghmore road to their new home, nestled away among the countryside landscape.

The property is easily accessible to major road networks, less than 4km from the N4 and N52. The M6 and M6 is less than a 15 minutes drive from the residence.
