Numbers 1 & 1A St Mary’s Road are being offered to the market in two lots of the entire.

Lot one – Number 1 St Mary’s Road – is let to Paula Callan, trading as ‘Callan & Co, The Experience’ on a new 21year lease from January 2016 at a rent of €90,000 per annum until January 2021, at which point the rent will increase to €97,500 per annum with open market rent reviews applying thereafter.

Number 1 is a fine example of a Victorian building. Formally occupied by the well-known restaurant, Marcels, the property is in immaculate condition, having undergone an extensive fit-out by the current tenant, with an emphasis on luxury and design. The entire building has been meticulous­ly transforme­d by Paula Callan, who is widely regarded as a market leader in the field of beauty.

Lot two – The Coach House – is a charming two-bedroom Victorian period redbrick property. Ideally located, the property offers spacious and well-presented accommodat­ion over two levels and extends to 860 sq ft. It is further enhanced by a private city garden and off-street parking for up to three cars behind electronic gates.

Colliers Internatio­nal director Michelle McGarry says: “This is a rare opportunit­y for an investor to acquire a prime piece of real estate in Dublin 4.

“With long term income from both Callan & Co and the Coach House, we expect strong interest.”
