The 0.04-acre property comprises the former Renault garage at Nos 127, 129, 131 and rear of No 133 at Lower Rathmines Road, Dublin 6.

The site is being sold with the benefit of planning permission granted last month for a mixed-use scheme incorporating 890sq m of ground floor retail space, 24 apartments in two blocks overlooking a central landscaped deck and 28 basement car-parking spaces.

The site is zoned Z4 . . . "to provide for and improve mixed-service facilities" in the City Development Plan, which could afford a developer an opportunity to remodel the development to incorporate other uses, including hotel, pub, shop or offices.

"We think the site will be of keen interest to a very significant number of developers, seeking 'ready-to-go' development opportunities in such a proven location as Lower Rathmines, " says Ronan Webster of joint selling agents CB Richard Ellis.

The site is currently occupied by an extensive car showroom and garage premises of 1,065sq m.

Given the high-profile location and the benefit of the planning permission, the joint selling agents are expecting very keen interest when tenders close on 30 November.
