A banker on South Mall for €495,000

A sub-€500,000 price will surely attract investor interest to a South Mall, Cork City centre office investment.

Having sold No 80A, South Mall (Hibernian House) for over €3m to an investor, Downing Commercial, jointly with JLL, are now selling No 13, and they describe it as a trophy buy — albeit at a fraction of their last Mall office-investment sale price: they are selling for a private pension fund.

No 13 had been let to Bank of Ireland on a long lease, but now in on a short-term occupancy is University College Cork, who’ve relocated some downtown research activities to the Mall.
