The dwelling is in reasonable condition throughout. The topography of the subject lands initially rises from the public road heading west and then fall to the south west. The site offers a prime opportunity to develop a nursing home on a site that benefits from a peaceful idyllic setting within close proximity to Tipperary Town Centre.
