Jordan Auctioneers,
Newbridge successfully sold c. 107.5 acres at Mullaboden, Naas by Public
Auction on Wednesday last for €1,200,000 equating to just over €11k per acre.
Before an attendance
of about 15 people Paddy Jordan opened the sale with an offer of €900,000 at
which stage there were 3 active bidders up to €1,100,000. At this point Mr. Jordan placed the property ‘on
the market’. Several more bids were received by two potential purchasers before
the property was sold to an Agent acting in trust on behalf of a client.
The property at
Mullaboden was conveniently located close to Naas 8km, Ballymore Eustace 2km
& Kilcullen 8km. Extending to a total of c. 107.5 acres (43.5 hectares) the
land was all in permanent pasture with natural boundaries and superb shelter
laid out in about 5 divisions with 150 meters road frontage. In addition to
this a restricted Planning Permission has also been granted by KCC for an equestrian
facility with Residence, Gate Lodge and Yards (restricted to applicant).
Speaking after the
Auction Paddy Jordan said the ‘sale had
generated extensive interest over the marketing period and that this was a
positive indication for the year ahead despite concerns about Brexit and other
external factors’. Several reported under bidders are understood to be
looking for something similar in the general area.
