TWO fine parcels of land have come on the market in Co Kildare, offered for sale by Lisney estate agents.

The first property is 50.4 acres at Feighcullen in Rathangan, Co Kildare. The lands briefly comprise a level land holding in permanent pasture with good frontage and offer potential for agricultural and equine uses being situated within reach of the Curragh schooling grounds and in the heart of thoroughbred country. The lands also offer potential for the development of a residence (subject to obtaining the necessary grant of planning permission).

This is an opportunity to acquire well-located lands in a sought after area in the townland of Feighcullen, 6km from Rathangan, 5.5km from Kilmeague Village and 10.6km from Newbridge. The Curragh, Punchestown and Naas Racecourse are within easy reach. There is a wide range of golf courses and several hunting packs in the locality.

Gilltown

A further 38.5 acres is available at Gilltown in Co Kildare. An irregular shaped land holding, full planning permission for a new vehicular entrance to the lands from the main road was granted in January 2021.

The majority of the lands, which are generally level topographically, are under permanent pasture with approx. 4.9 acres of a semi-mature plantation (mixed spruce and hardwoods). The land which is laid out in four divisions is of good quality with post and rail fencing, mature hedging and trees.

The lands offer potential for the development of a residence subject to planning permission. This is a rural area and intending purchasers are advised to consult with Kildare County Council in respect of their current rural settlement policies.

The lands are located close to Kilcullen and opposite the world-renowned Gilltown Stud, owned by the Aga Khan. Kilcullen is on the River Liffey about 6km from the Curragh and is situated beside the Dublin to Waterford (M9) motorway between Naas and Kilkenny.

Gilltown and the adjoining Sallymount Stud cover approximately 1,250 acres and are an important part of Ireland’s national racing heritage.

Designed to meet the demands of a 21st century breeding establishment, Gilltown is a typical Anglo Irish estate built in Georgian style in the 18th century. It is home to a large variety of wildlife and features beautiful oak trees and an oak lined avenue.

Viewing for both properties is by appointment and price on application. For more information, contact selling agent Ross Shorten on 01-638 2700 or rshorten@lisney.com.
