Built in the 1960s and early 1970s, it is made up of two office buildings over five and six storeys respectively.

There is also a basement car park and storage accommodation.

Mark Reynolds is director of development at Savills Ireland: "We believe the property's exceptional location coupled with Dublin's strong economic growth makes No 9 - 12 Dawson Street a highly attractive and unique proposition and represents a prime development opportunity."
