Waterford estate agents Purcell Properties have confirmed that a substantial holding situated at Bishopscourt, Grantstown is to be auctioned in April.  The holding was the homeplace of the late Oliver Flynn who farmed the land for most of his working life.

The farm is bounded by part of the grounds of Ballygunner GAA club and is accessed off the Bishopscourt Road, which is just off the Grantstown Road.  The farm is effectively in two divisions with the residence and approximately 31 acres in one holding and the balance of the land being 46 acres, located on the opposite side of the road.  The land is entirely in grass and has been well farmed and husbanded through the years.

The land is immediate to the Grantstown Road and circa 2.5 miles from Waterford city centre.  It clearly affords development potential and it is anticipated the holding will be of interest to investors, developers, construction industry and local farmers.

Auctioneers are quoting a guide price of €1,250,000 for the residence on 31 acres and €925,000 for the 46 acres opposite.
