A house, which makes up part of the property for auction at Corlismore near Ballinagh.

Landmark property for sale

After five generations, the well-known McKiernan’s house, shop and store together with over 105 acres of land are to be sold by public auction on Friday, October 20, in the Hotel Kilmore, Cavan.

Martin O’Reilly, the auctioneer, says: “The combination of the farm’s size, the land quality, it contains four dwellings (three derelict houses, one with full planning permission) and its good accessibility makes it an attractive purchase. It’s a rare opportunity for anyone who wants to buy the land for an investment, for agricultural purposes or if there is someone looking to buy somewhere for their son, daughter or even themselves to do a bit of farming.

“The main residence with seven double bedrooms, four reception rooms, and three bathrooms is a fine house with great space for a young family. The shop and commercial unit, with three roller shutter entrances, is very attractive for a variety of big industrial businesses.”

The properties are located on or near the main Ballinagh to Arva Road (the L2505) about 4km from Ballinagh and 12.5km south-west of Cavan Town.
