Jones Investments, the property development group headed by Chris Jones, has engaged Savills and Agar Commercial Property as joint agents to offer the former AIB building in Donnybrook, Dublin 4, for sale at a guide price of €2.5 million. The property, at 69-71 Morehampton Road, is alternatively being made available to let at an annual rent of €180,000.
