Aerial of the Lands on Offer

Today’s auction took place in the Courtyard, Ferns with strict Covid-19 protocols in place. As such, attendance was far lower than would be expected at such an event.

In the run up to the auction, the holding had been guided in the region of €800,000 or €14,035 per acre.

The property was to be offered in the following lots:
Lot 1: C. 17.7 acres with derelict residence
Lot 2: C. 39.2 acres
Lot 3: The entire

Lot 1: Bidding on lot 1 opened at €200,000 and with four bidders it peaked at €400,000.

Lot 2: This lot commenced at €350,000 and with two parties active it reached €400,000.

Lot 3: The entire received strong interest from two bidders and it soon became clear that the offer on the entire would eclipse the joint offers of Lots 1 and 2. Accordingly, Lot 3 was placed ‘on the market’ at €910,000. With rapid bidding, the property went under the hammer for €940,000. The purchaser was an Enniscorthy based solicitor acting in trust.

The auction returned a great result for our client, as the farm made €140,000 in excess of the guide price. The successful bid equated to a price of c. €16,500 per acre.
