Sale of land at Ballybrit in Galway will set benchmark

The shortage of zoned commercial land in Galway city has pushed prices up over the past few years. The forthcoming sale of 7.11 acres at Ballybrit is expected to give a good indication of current values when joint agents Smith and Company and Mulryan Auctioneers launch the marketing campaign. The land is likely to make more than £450,000 (€571,382) an acre.

The parcel of land is for sale in one or three individual lots and is located a short distance off the Ballybrit roundabout along the Eastern Approach Road. There is 164 ft of frontage on to the link road to the industrial park.
