Office InvestmentA restored Georgian building in Dublin's Mountjoy Square is on the market through agent Savills Hamilton Osborne King for over €3.75 million.

The building has 800sq m (8,611sq ft) and has a modern annex, along with 13 car-parking spaces to the rear.

Number 25 Mountjoy Square East in Dublin 1 is four-storey over basement and has been owned since 1964 by spirit and wine distributor, Edward Dillion & Co. It has been used for office accommodation but features many fine original architectural touches.

Mountjoy Square represents a "very attractive location" for those seeking office accommodation, according to the agent. It's a short walk from O'Connell and Henry Streets, and is within easy reach of commuter and mainline rail services at Connolly Station.

"This is a truly fantastic building which combines beautiful original features with a practicality which suits modern office demands," says Fenton Murphy of Savills Hamilton Osborne King.

Number 25 is one of three houses built by Frederick Darley Sr in Mountjoy Square, which was originally laid out by Luke Gardiner, Lord Mountjoy. Individual plots on the square were sold under licence with purchasers given a six-year period in which to build their homes.

The building retains its Portland stone stairs, distinctive arch recesses framing principal doors, elaborately decorated ceilings, cornice and frieze work, and fine marble fireplaces.
