€400,000 sought in Wexford

The building was previously used as an auction room and has a large single-storey extension to the rear as well as a back yard extending to 152sq m (1,636sq ft). Niamh Walsh of Lisney said that with the building “competitively priced” it should be of interest to investors, developers and owner-occupiers.
