The centre opened in 2008 and has 2,500sq m (26,910sq ft) of vacant retail space which when let will enhance the returns from the investment.

The overall rent at this stage from the shopping centre is €657,896 with a weighted average unexpired lease term of 10.74 years. Tesco is also paying €163,570 for a stand alone Tesco petrol filling station located between the shopping centre and junction 9 on the M8 motorway. This lease has another eight years to run.

Offers for the shopping centre and the petrol filling station will be considered individually.
