Description
Lot 3: The Entire: (Lot 1 & Lot 2) on a total land area of approx. 17.3 Ha (42.8 Acres)
Extending to approximately 17.3 hectares (42.8 acres), this exceptional holding at Herbertstown, Dunboyne, represents a rare opportunity to acquire prime agricultural land in one of County Meath’s most desirable and strategically located areas. Positioned within the Dublin commuter belt, the property combines the enduring strength of top-quality farmland with outstanding accessibility and long-term location value.
Lotting
• Lot 1: Herbertstown Lands (North) on approx. 7.8 Ha (19.2 Acres)
• Lot 2: Herbertstown Lands (South) on approx. 9.5 Ha (23.6 Acres)
• Lot 3: The Entire: (Lot 1 & Lot 2) on a total land area of approx. 17.3 Ha (42.8 Acres)
Special Features
• Prime 42.8-acre holding of high-quality agricultural land in a sought-after Dunboyne location.
• Excellent road frontage to each lot
Lot 1: Approx. 250 metres of road frontage
Lot 2: Approx. 400 metres of road frontage
• Potential for one off residential development on both lots (Subject to Full Planning Permission)
• Strategically positioned within the Dublin commuter belt with excellent access to the M3 and Dublin City.
• Fertile, well-maintained land suitable for both tillage and grassland enterprises.
• Well-laid out fields allowing efficient farm management.
• Offered in two lots or in its entirety, providing flexibility for purchasers.
• Rare opportunity to acquire quality farmland in a strong and highly desirable location.
LOCATION
The lands are of very good quality, well maintained and currently in excellent heart. The fertile soils are ideally suited to both tillage and grassland enterprises, offering versatility for a wide range of agricultural uses. The holding is laid out in practical, well-defined divisions with good frontage (Lot 1, approx. 250 metres of road frontage and Lot 2, approx. 400 metres) and access, ensuring ease of management and efficient day-today operation. Such quality land, in strong productive condition, is increasingly difficult to source in this immediate area. Both lots offer excellent potential for a one-off residential dwelling, subject to full planning permission, given their strong road frontage and highly desirable location.
Herbertstown is widely regarded as one of the most sought-after rural settings surrounding Dunboyne, offering a peaceful countryside environment while remaining within immediate reach of the capital. The property enjoys exceptional connectivity, situated just minutes from Dunboyne village and within easy access of the M3 motorway, providing direct routes to Dublin City Centre and the wider national road network. Dublin Airport is also within comfortable commuting distance, enhancing the property’s appeal to both local and city-based purchasers. Dunboyne itself has experienced sustained and carefully managed growth in recent years and continues to benefit from strong demand driven by its proximity to Dublin. The area offers a full complement of amenities including schools, shops, restaurants, sporting facilities and public transport links, including rail services connecting to Dublin Docklands. The combination of established infrastructure and ongoing regional development underpins the long-term strength of land values in this locality.
The holding’s position within this high-demand corridor enhances not only its agricultural appeal but also its broader strategic significance. Land of this calibre, located so close to the capital yet retaining a distinctly rural character, is increasingly scarce. Whether acquired as a working farm, a secure land investment, or as part of a long-term strategic holding, this property represents a compelling opportunity in a location with proven resilience and enduring desirability.
In summary, this is a substantial and versatile parcel of prime Meath land, situated in a premium location where quality agricultural attributes meet outstanding accessibility. Opportunities to secure 42.8 acres of such well-positioned and productive land in Herbertstown, Dunboyne are exceptionally rare and will undoubtedly attract strong interest.

About the Area
Dunboyne is a satellite town in County Meath. Centred on the crossroads formed by the R156 regional road and the old Maynooth Road (formerly designated R157), the area is served by two rail stations - Dunboyne railway station and Pace M3 railway station. Dunboyne is served by two Dublin Bus routes; the 70 and 270. There is also a limited Bus Éireann service to/from Dunshaughlin, Navan and Kells on route 109 and to Mullingar, Killucan, Rathmolyon and Summerhill on route 118.
Due to its proximity to Dublin, comprehensive public transport system, and abundance of amenities, the area is increasingly becoming a popular destination for buyers looking to avoid the high housing costs in Dublin's city centre.
