MAGOWNA House in Inch is the latest Clare hotel to go under the hammer at an Allsop Space Auction with a reserve price of € 350,000.
Last year at the auction, Ashford Court Hotel in Ennis was sold to Clarecastle businessman and farmer JJ McCabe for € 305,000.
The millionaire also bought the Kilkee Bay Hotel that failed to sell at the same auction in a private deal afterwards.
Now the sellers of the 10-bed Magowna House are hoping for similar success.
Three two-bedroom cottages and an 18-hole pitch and putt course are also part of the sale.
The hotel is not the only property for sale at the February 25 auction however.
16.67 acres of land in Doonbeg, as well as an apartment at Town Court, Shannon and 22 acres of land at Ard- nacrusha are also to be sold off.
The “irregular-shaped plot of land” at Doonbeg is being offered with a reserve of € 75,000.
The 60-square-metre apartment in Shannon will sell for no less than € 20,000.
The two-bedroom property is on the first floor and includes off street parking.
Meanwhile a parcel of land in Ardnacrusha extending to approximately 8.963 hectares (22.13 acres) will go on sale with a reserve of € 75,000.
This irregular-shaped plot of land is subject to a tenancy expiring in March 2015 at a current rent of € 450 per annum.
The Clare properties and land are just five of 190 properties to go under the hammer in the RDS, Dublin, on February 25 starting at 9am.
Allsop Space director of auctions Robert Hoban maintained that no repossessed family homes would be sold at any of the company’s auctions.
