Online Auction Thursday 29th July 2021 @14.00. A charming Eddie Hackett designed parkland course situated in the Waterford countryside only 4km from the thriving town of Dungarvan and the coast. The 141 acre (57 hectare) 18 hole course extending to 6,802 yards off the championship tees was created in 1991 from top quality farmland. Streams were diverted to create water features and extensive plantings have matured to increase the challenge this course presents. The spacious, yet comfortable clubhouse has the ladies and gents changing rooms, showers, and the pro-shop at ground level with the main restaurant, kitchen, bar and balconies offering fine views on the first floor. A deliberate policy has been in place over the years whereby only standard fertilizers have been used except for the green where specific grass treatments have been kept to a minimum. With the planting of mixed woodland and the creation of small water hazards the area has become a haven for wildlife. THE COURSE Starting with gently undulating farmland in 1991, the course designer has created a friendly yet challenging 18 hole course with tree lined fairways, water hazards and well positioned bunkering. The natural topography permitted the creation of difficult yet fair greens without excessive landscaping. The golf guidebook “Hooked: An Amateurs Guide to golf courses of Ireland” placed West Waterford at no. 8 in the country’s top hidden gems. There is a central irrigation system to all greens fed from a large tank under the worker shed with all piping at a depth of 3 to 4 feet. THE CLUBHOUSE The clubhouse built in 1993 was designed to take full advantage of the fine views from its elevated position. Extending to over 650 sq. m at the ground level there are the ladies and gents changing rooms, the pro shop, members office, managers office and storage. The first floor accommodation has a spacious wrap around balcony and includes the main bar and dining area with feature beamed ceilings, members lounge (dining capacity 30) with bar counter and fully equipped commercial kitchen with cold stove and other storage. OUTBUILDINGS The worker shed is a former slatted cattle shed of three stalls with double lean to with the underground tank now used for rainwater storage. THE LANDS Total about 148 acres (59 hectares) of which about 2 acres comprise the avenue clubhouse and extensive parking. Of the remainder about 25 acres is in various strips of woodland mainly spruce fringed by hardwoods. The balance is taken up by the golf course. It should be noted that the softwoods are nearing maturity and are a valuable asset. Full Vacant Possession Available
