A retail property let to New Look at a passing rent of €125,000 in Clonmel, Co Tipperary, is on the market through Moynihan Curran Chartered Surveyors for more than €1 million. At this price a sale would reflect a net initial yield of 11.52 per cent.

New Look’s lease has another 11 years to run until expiry in February 2030 but there is a tenant break option in about six years.

The town centre property, at 12 O’Connell Street, extends to 743sq m (8,000sq ft) and is close to Penneys, River Island, Elverys, Heatons and Shoe Zone.

There is office space in both buildings on the ground and first floors.

The facility, formerly an insulation manufacturing plant run by Moy Isover for 35 years, closed in 2008 with the loss of 44 jobs. The closure was blamed on the downturn in construction at the time.
