Location:

• Accessed just 2.2km from the N78 which links to Castlecomer as well as to Kilkenny City which is only 15 mins from the said property. Sited close to the town of Castlecomer, which hosts Castlecomer Golf Club, various primary schools and Castlecomer Community School.
• The property lies in Muckalee, County Kilkenny, a rural community which hosts Muckalee National School as well as Muckalee GAA club.
• Located at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac just off the Kilkenny/Castlecomer road, the property offers peace and privacy in a tranquil rural setting.
• The bungalow and outbuildings are positioned near the roadside, with the lands stretching out to the rear.
• Castlecomer is a short 9 minute drive away, with a host of local services and amenities easily accessible with Kilkenny City a short 15 minute drive away.
• This is a large parcel of land (approx. 23.33 ha) which is ideal for farming, grazing, redevelopment, or a countryside homestead.

Detached bungalow:

A detached bungalow that was constructed in the 1970s, sits to the front of the holding and is accessed off the road via a laneway. Extending to approximately 110 m², the bungalow is of concrete block construction with a slate roof and is currently semi-derelict, but offers considerable scope for renovation and re-use. With imagination and the necessary planning consents, this existing property could be restored to provide a comfortable country residence.

Accommodation extends to c. 85m2 or thereabouts and comprises of;

• Front Hallway: 1.20m. x 4.50m.
• Sitting Room: 3.64m. x 3.25m.
• Kitchen: 3.70m. x 4.27m. which also includes a back utility area (2.66m. x 1.87m.)
• Bathroom: 1.75m. x 2.95m. complete with a w.c, wash hand basin and a bath
• Bedroom 1: 2.80m. x 3.15m.
• Bedroom 2: 4.35m. x 3.52m.
• Bedroom 3: 3.25m. x 3.55m.

Services include: Septic tank, private water supply.

Outbuildings:

To the side of the bungalow are several substantial farm buildings – including a four-span barn which is galvanized iron over a steel portal frame – along with some traditional stone farm outbuildings. Toward the rear of the lands there is an old farm residence which has fallen into disrepair. While this would require complete renovation or rebuilding, it presents an additional opportunity for redevelopment subject to the necessary planning consents.

The Lands:

Spanning c. 23.33 hectares (c. 57.6 acres in FOLIO NO: KK4142), the holding comprises a substantial tract of land in one division, laid out in grassland which would be ideal for grazing, arable use, or future redevelopment. These lands have become neglected over the last number of years, but have great scope and are suitable for a variety of agricultural uses.
