DNG Michael Boland will bring a substantial 11-bedroom detached dwelling in Carrowteige, Portacloy, Ballina, to online auction on Thursday, September 25, at 11 a.m.

The property, a former dance hall, is located along the famed Wild Atlantic Way, has an advised minimum value of €70,000.

Set on approximately 0.65 acres, the holding includes the original dwelling house in need of full refurbishment, an old dance hall, sheds and outbuildings. The site is spread across Folios MY81134F and MY81136F.
