102-acre North Cork farm guiding €9,500/acre
The farm is at Brookpark and Finnanfield, just off the historic Butter Road, 8km from Millstreet and 33km from Mallow.
'We're guiding it around €9,500 per acre,' says selling agent Pat Murphy of the property, which is separated into two parts by the public road, with one section across the public road from the other.
'There are 68 acres in one block, with the farmyard and the residence, and on the other 34-acre block, there is another farmyard with a three-column shed and cattle crush. The house is a four-bedroom farmhouse which is in need of modernisation.'
The holding enjoys a great deal of road frontage, making it ideal even as an outside farm.
'For over half of the lands, we'd consider it good grazing ground,' said Mr Murphy.
'The remainder of it would need some work but it has good potential… In the main bulk of land, the yard includes a few nice stone outbuildings, a barn, lean-to and feeding bins, an old milking parlour and cattle crushes.
'A lot of the interest is local interest and we'd expect interest from farther afield as well, given that it's such a large block of land and the price guide is reasonable.'

Two people allegedly involved in surveillance of 'spy' case man are named in court case
Two people who were allegedly involved in surveilling and harassing the man at the centre of the "spying" row between two rival HR giants have been added as defendants in a High Court case related to the affair. Retired private investigator, Mark Murran, otherwise known as Rock Investigations, was allegedly the driver of a car involved in following and surveilling Keith O'Brien, a former Dublin-based payroll manager with Rippling, a US-headquartered multibillion-dollar HR software provider, the court heard. Cliona Woods of Dublin-based Gotham Services was allegedly involved in organising "discreet surveillance". Both were joined as defendants in Mr O'Brien's action over the matter. Both "categorically refute" Mr O'Brien's allegations of intimidation and harassment and say the surveillance was discreet, their barrister John O'Regan told the court on Tuesday. The case was back before Mr Justice Brian Cregan to deal with a number of applications in advance of the hearing of the case, including changing the defendants from "persons unknown" to the two named defendants. Deel Inc It was also back in to consider whether Deel Inc, the other US-based HR firm involved, should also be joined to the case. Deel allegedly paid Mr O'Brien, of Balrothery in north Dublin, to pass on Rippling's trade secrets to it, a claim it denies. Imogen McGrath SC, for Mr O'Brien, said the defendants had consented to an order not to surveil Mr O'Brien pending determination of the proceedings. Counsel said she was not making an application to join Deel as the purpose of the case was to resolve the dispute between her client and the defendants. There may also be a third defendant but her side needed time to write to that potential defendant, she said. Counsel also said there was a significant dispute over whether the surveillance amounted to harassment which the defendants say it did not. Mr Justice Cregan said he had been mulling over the issue and he was considering joining Deel at the motion of the court. While this was against the wishes of the O'Brien side, he did it in the context of an earlier claim that the surveillance was an interference with the administration of justice as Mr O'Brien is a defendant and witness in separate proceedings being brought over the alleged spying affair by Rippling against Deel. It was also in circumstances where Deel's lawyers had, in a pre-litigation letter in reply to Mr O'Brien's solicitor, said it had no knowledge of the particular alleged surveillance being carried out. The judge said: Now that letter is either a blatant lie or a misrepresentation. He said the defendants were employed by Deel which meant it was directly implicated. Ms McGrath asked the court to first allow the parties (her client and Deel) to exchange pleadings in the normal way. Paul Gardiner SC, for Deel, said he took "grave exception to what the court said". He believed the court should not be pronouncing on a letter as misrepresentation until it had heard all the facts. His side had written that letter according to what it believed to be true at the time, he said. If the plaintiff says it did not want Deel joined, it was not for the court to say it should, he said. His client had actually invited the O'Brien side to do so but it chose not to. Counsel also pointed out that Mr O'Brien has entered into a co-operation agreement with Rippling, has agreed not to seek any reliefs against him in the separate Rippling/Deel case and has waived all claims against him. The judge said he knew that joining a defendant to proceedings at the court's own motion was an exceptional jurisdiction but that was in the circumstances of the allegations of intimidation and a letter which appeared to be manifestly misleading. He said he wanted to reflect on the matter and will decide at the end of the week whether to hear submissions from the parties on the issue. He also said given that Mr Gardiner accepted the letter was incorrect, he did not see why counsel took "such umbrage at my interpretation". Ms McGrath said she thought Mr Gardiner "is making a mountain out of a very small molehill". He continued the injunctions restraining surveillance of Mr O'Brien and requiring the defendants to preserve any evidence which may be used in the case. He would also hear an application on Friday by the defendants requiring Mr O'Brien to preserve evidence. Read More Case involving alleged spy now focusing on where payment to him came from

95-acre Clare farm fetches in excess of AMV post-auction
A 95-acre farm in Co Clare sold well on June 17, even though it failed sell at a public auction at GVM's auction rooms at their Limerick City offices on Glantworth St. The holding was at Ballycannon West, adjacent to the village of Meelick, just north of Limerick City. It was a joint sale along with GVM and Naas-based O'Neill & Co Chartered Surveyors and Auctioneers. Although predominantly in pasture, the lands contained around 10 acres of mature woodland and had been let for several years. The farm represented a good opportunity for someone to improve to its full potential and also featured a derelict house with a traditional enclosed farmyard. The property was a hybrid auction, with bids from the floor and online (via the LSL auctions platform), with a good attendance present at GVM's offices, according to O'Neill & Co's Darac O'Neill. 'Bidding reached €625,000,' said Mr O'Neill, 'before the property was withdrawn." "Following negotiations with the highest bidder, the property was sold shortly afterwards for a figure well in excess of its advised minimum value (AMV). "The buyer is understood to be a Cork-based businessman.' Commenting afterwards, Mr O'Neill added: 'We were very pleased with the level of interest in this sale and a very successful result, well above the AMV. "It's a great outcome for our client and demonstrates the depth of the market for land of this scale and location.' The sale was conducted jointly by O'Neill & Co and GVM Auctioneers.
