**SALE AGREED** James L Murtagh auctioneers are delighted to present this c.127-acre non- residential former dairy farm

Agricultural Property Location:  Lissaquill, Tang, Co. Westmeath N39 H312

Located off the N55 between Athlone and Ballymahon the extensive undulating grass farm is at two sides of a country road 3km south of the village of Tang, 7km south of Ballymahon and 18km northeast of Athlone.

The farm is being sold without the residence but includes a substantial yard with accommodation for 130 cattle along with c.103 acres of grazing ground and 23.74 acres of mixed forestry with premiums remaining.

The Lands

• The grassland is laid out in a series of large fields at either side of a country road and includes a mix of elevated meadows and some low-lying ground that is well drained.
• The fields are divided by traditional hedgerow and the farm is dotted with some fine stands of trees providing plenty of shelter.
• The land has generous amounts of road frontage, is serviced by an internal roadway and all the fields are watered.
• The bulk of the land, 79 acres of grazing and 16 acres of forestry, is located around the farmyard while across the road is a 25.26-acre parcel of grassland and a small 6.74ac forestry plantation.

Farmyard

• The yard is made up of an extensive range of sheds including a A-roof four column, steel frame sheds with a central passage and slatted accommodation at either side and older four column enclosed haybarn with cubicles and lean-tos at either.
• There are two free standing lean-to type sheds on an open four-bay building suitable for machinery or fodder storage and the other is an older shed with four individual compartments with steel doors.
• There is also a feed-bin, a walled silage slab and cattle handling facilities.

The holding was once home to a dairy operation that could be revived with some additions to the infrastructure. As it stands, it has everything needed for a fine beef or sheep enterprise.

The holding will be brought to auction and sold as an entire or in lots as follows:

– Lot 1. c.95 acre with the sheds and including c.16 acres of forestry
