The Blanchardstown shopping centre is being put up for sale with a price tag of €725 million.
The centre, which is Ireland's largest shopping destination, was acquired by current owners Goldman Sachs in a €750 million deal in December 2020. It was bought as part of a package that included two retail parks, external retail units and a five-storey office block.
Major tenants in the centre includes Penneys and Marks & Spencer, with a Nike concept store recently opening at the centre. There are 180 stores throughout the property.
The Irish Times reports that Goldman Sachs have appointed real estate investment bank Eastdil Secured and CBRE to lead the sale. The guide price for the centre is between €650 and €725 million.
