Post Auction Editorial Riverstown House Kildangan

Jordan Auctioneers, Newbridge successfully sold Riverstown House just outside Kildangan on Friday last by Public Auction. Before a good attendance at the Keadeen Hotel the property was offered for sale in 2 lots.

Lot 1 comprised the Period Residence and yard on c.28.5 acres which opened with an initial bid of €220,000 with offers increasing in increments of €10,000 up to €380,000 with 4 active bidders. The property was placed on the market at this point with two purchasers fighting it out up to €410,000 at which stage this lot was sold to a Solicitor acting in trust for a client.

The residence dates to c.1750 – 1800 and extends to approximately 451 sq.m (4,854 sq.ft). Adjacent to the residence is a farmyard with a number of agricultural sheds, walled garden and stone outbuildings. The land is all in permanent pasture, laid out in four divisions with an abundance of mature timber providing good shelter and extensive frontage onto the River Barrow.

Lot 2 is located directly across the road from the above and extended to c. 18.5 acres. This property opened with an initial offer of €150,000 with 2 bidders right up to €242,000 at which stage the lands was sold to a local farmer.

The land is laid out in 5 divisions, all in permanent pasture with extensive road frontage and good shelter.

Prior to the Auction Jordans had been guiding €530,000 for the 2 combined lots so the figure of €652,000 represented a very good result. Speaking after the Auction Clive Kavanagh of the selling agents reported that ‘the house, although in need of complete restoration had generated considerable interest with in excess of 20 viewers and that the vendors were delighted with the result and wished the new purchasers every success’.

Post Auction - Renville House on c.135 Acres

One of the most publicised and anticipated Auction to take place, west of the Shannon in Oranmore, Co. Galway was conducted last Thursday by Jordan Auctioneers, Newbridge in the Radisson Blu Hotel.

Before an attendance of about 30 people Renville House on 135 acres, home of the Lydon family since 1960 was placed under the hammer. Bidding was initially cautious & slow opening at €1,500,000 with 4 active purchasers up to €2,700,000. After a brief consultation with the vendors the property was declared ‘on the market’ with only 2 parties fighting it out before the entire was sold for €3,200,000 to a Solicitor acting in trust on behalf of a client.

There is little doubt that this was a splendid property, entirely unique considering its location on the edge of Galway Bay, close to the city, Oranmore and the Motorway. Approached via a ½ mile long winding avenue on top quality land with a charming residence (although in need of some modernisation), farmyard and Herd’s cottage.

Paddy Jordan speaking after the Auction said ‘the sale had generated huge interest since the outset of the marketing campaign and it had been one of the finest properties he had sold, particularly in terms of the reaction of viewers when they saw the quality of the land, the setting and its unique charm, there were almost no negative comments, which is very unusual’ 

Jordans had been quoting €2,000,000 prior to the Auction and discussing this with Paddy Jordan he explained ‘there was a certain X factor with the property which was hard to put a number on and really it depended on people’s individual desire to purchase, it now appears this factor was possibly €1,200,000 over the guide’

Considering the Farmers Journal Land Price Survey 2015 placed the average price of agricultural land in the County at €7,443 this result of almost €24,000 per acre will go a long way to be matched.

Paddy Jordan at the commencement of the Auction commented that there are ‘three key factors when buying a property, location, location, location’ and this result certainly bears testament to that.

The Lydon family were delighted with the result and wish the purchaser every success in a property they have so many fond memories of.
