OFFICE MARKET:WITH GEORGIAN office buildings selling briskly in recent weeks despite the overall slowdown in the market, a buyer seems likely to emerge shortly for another similar building at 29 Fitzwilliam Place, Dublin 2, which is for sale by private treaty.
James Nugent of Lisney and Evan O'Reilly of Turley & Associates are guiding €6 million for the four-storey over basement, mid-terrace house which is being sold along with its rear car-park and mews building.
The main house extends to 377sq m (4,058sq ft) and, according to the selling agents, is in excellent condition with bright, spacious rooms and many original features including fireplaces, ceiling cornices and an impressive tiled floor in the entrance hallway.
The building has been carefully modernised in parts to meet the needs of office occupiers and has category five data cabling, fluorescent and spot lighting, oil-fired central heating and a fire escape to the rear. The ground floor has a three-bedroom apartment while the upper floors are in office use.
The two-storey mews building fronting on to Leeson Close - near the junction with Lower Leeson Street - has 86sq m (926sq ft) of office space. The car-park can accommodate eight cars.
