Description Tormay House is a magnificent 2 storey, self-contained detached modern office building with a beautifully landscaped garden and 3 surface car parking spaces with rear access through the laneway from Saint Lawrence Road. The landlord has carefully maintained and refurbished the original limestone building facade, entrance and architectural features of the old Tormay Post Office building. Behind the residential style facade there is a completely new bespoke office building with an internal lift. It has been specifically designed to accommodate a training centre but may suit a variety of other office users or medical use, subject to change of use planning permission if required, e.g. Solicitors, Accountants, IT, Marketing, Dental or Medical clinic. This landmark office building has been fitted out to an extremely high standard including an impressive reception area, generous corridors, fully fitted kitchen / canteen, 3 - 4 individual office / training rooms, a comms room and 3 bathrooms and a shower room. The interior has been cleverly designed to allow excellent natural light in through the rear stair core and into the office space throughout the day and it is fully air-conditioned. There is a large feature seminar room / training room at first floor level with high spec presentation equipment and a sound-proof concertina divide that provides bright and spacious open plan office space, which can be easily divided into 2 separate rooms by closing the partition. There is also ample roof and corridor space in the attic as well as roof lights, and a dormer window at the rear of the property, should a tenant choose to convert the attic space into a dormer office / meeting room. In addition to this, the plumbing, electrics and carpet are all in place in the attic space should a tenant look to expand into this area. There could also be potential for a tenant to enclose the immediate patio area with a pergola to create an inside /outside style breakout area. The garden extends to 40m and has been carefully designed and planted to provide a calm and relaxing tranquil environment and breakout area for staff. It includes an octagonal Summerhouse (3m diameter) which could be used for meetings / quiet space. Given the coastal location, panoramic sea views, high end bathroom and shower facilities, fully fitted kitchen, landscaped garden with breakout areas, bespoke fit out and very high quality design, excellent BER rating and new cycling corridor, Tormay House should appeal to office tenants and score well on an ESG and wellness rating. SUMMARY OF HISTORY Tormay House, as it is named today, is a landmark building steeped in history. It was originally a fishing cottage built circa 1790 when Clontarf was a small fishing village. Indentures and maps show that it was a holding of Lord Howth which was leased to a number of people over the centuries. It was extended and turned into a coach / boarding house in the early part of the 19th century and re-named Anna Villa. In 1879 Maria Tormay leased the building which was converted to a home with an adjacent Post Office that remained open and in the same family for close to 100 years and many locals in Clontarf will still remember it. In recent years the building was renovated sympathetically using modern technology combined with old methods such as lime rendering the front walls, to turn the beautiful old building into a state-of-the-art executive training facility and landscaped garden which offers wonderful tranquility and all modern facilities overlooking Dublin Bay and a stone's throw from Dublin City.
