I was sure if this was on Rathgar Road or Lower Rathmines Road and I was hoping that the building would have an interesting story or history but all that I could find was the following description: "17A/18 Rathgar Road comprises of a two storey end-of-terrace building totalling approximately 193 sq.m. (2,077 sq.ft). The ground floor comprises of retail accommodation with store room, canteen and 2 no. W.C' s to the rear of the property. The first and second floors are in use as office and storage accommodation".
