Auction Report
Lot 1 opened at €70,000 and with two further bids reached €90,000.
Lot 2 started at €300,000 and with swift bidding peaked at €490,000. This set a combined bid of €580,000 for Lot 3 to surpass.
Lot 3 commenced at €590,000. However, there was clearly very strong interest in this lot as bidding quickly exceeded €700,000. Bids continued to come in quickly and the auctioneer took a brief break at €800,000 to seek instructions from the vendor. Upon his return to the auction room, David Quinn announced that he had been instructed to place the property on the market at €800,000.
Although more than 20 bids had been placed on Lot 3, it took some time before additional offers were made. However, once a bid of €810,000 was made further bids swiftly followed. As bidding drew to a close there was one last twist. The hammer was about to fall at €900,000 when a bid of €905,000 came in just in time. There was to be no further drama as the hammer fell at this sum, equating to a price per acre of €17,920.
The successful bidder was identified as a local dairy farmer.
Auctioneer David Quinn was thrilled with the outcome, “today’s auction produced an exceptional price and I am delighted for the vendor. The result underlines the strength of the North Wexford agricultural land market which has continued to show great resilience. I am sure the price achieved will give confidence to those considering selling similar properties.”
