Thu 11 Nov 2009Curragh stud price cut by 60 per cent
ONE OF THE country’s oldest stud farms, Brownstown Stud, beside the Curragh in Co Kildare has had its price cut to €1.35 million – a 60 per cent drop in two years. The 26.4-acre property was withdrawn from auction back in 2007 at €3.4 million and has failed to find a buyer since.
Brownstown, with its elegant four-bedroom period house and full foaling and training facilities, has horsey connections dating back to 1802 when a Captain Candrell was reported as breeding and training there.
