Description
Excellent single block of farmland close to Kilkenny City The Farm at Newtown extends to about 181 acres in total and comprises a well-balanced agricultural and forestry holding, enjoying a peaceful rural setting just five kilometres from Kilkenny City. The land lies within a single block and includes about 100 acres of productive grassland and about 79 acres of established forestry. The grassland is laid out in generously sized, south-facing fields which are easily accessed and well-suited to modern farming or equestrian use. The topography is gently undulating with mature boundary hedgerows throughout. The forestry, arranged in two distinct blocks, is a key feature of the property. It comprises a mix of mature and younger plantations, including Sitka Spruce, Japanese Larch, Norway Spruce, and Ash, offering strong long-term investment potential. The farm also benefits from a tree felling licence, which may support future management or harvesting plans. In addition to its commercial value, the woodland enhances privacy and contributes significantly to the overall amenity and character of the holding. It may also qualify for forestry premiums or environmental schemes. At the heart of the property are the ruins of a former dwelling and a previous farmyard with ample hardstanding, offering potential for redevelopment, subject to the necessary planning permissions. The infrastructure is a notable feature of the property, with both three-phase and single-phase electricity available for connection, along with mains water close by. A network of well-maintained internal tracks ensures excellent access throughout the farm. The Farm at Newtown has been carefully managed by the current owners and offers considerable scope for further development, diversification, or conservation use. The mature woodland, in particular, presents opportunities for those interested in offsetting carbon, promoting environmental stewardship, or enhancing amenity value. The land can be classified as follows: Silage ground - About 100 acres Woodland - About 79 acres Miscellaneous - About 2 acres Total - 181 acres
