IPUT plc is pleased to announce plans to invest in Styne House, a Grade A office building situated on Hatch Street, Dublin 2, including the addition of a new street level café and enhanced amenities for occupiers.

IPUT intends to enlarge the existing reception area of Styne House and lower the ground floor entrance which will allow for the development of an 800 sq. ft. café at street level. This new café will provide a vibrant and attractive space for the occupiers of Styne House and members of the public while enhancing the public realm

This investment is part of the Fund’s rolling refurbishment programme and will substantially enhance occupier amenities including new shower, locker, drying rooms and toilet facilities and increase the number of bicycle parking spaces to 100.

As part of a longer-term asset management strategy for Styne House, IPUT has received approval to construct an additional penthouse level comprising 8,000 sq.ft. of office space at 6th floor.

Designed by RKD Architects, it is anticipated that this phased development will see completion of a new building reception, café and basement facilities upgrade by mid-2019.

Kevin Sweeney of Savills has been appointed to source an occupier for the café space on behalf of IPUT.
