How this is calculated
We search the Property Price Register for closed sales near this property — matching by location, beds, property type, and where available, floor area (±20%). This gives us a set of genuinely comparable transactions.
Each sale is then time-adjusted to today using local price trends, so a sale from 18 months ago is inflated (or deflated) to reflect current market conditions. Where floor area is known, sales are also size-adjusted — a 90m² sale is normalised to what it would have sold for at this property's size. This means the figures you see aren't raw prices — they're what those same homes would likely sell for today, at this size.
Your bid strategy (opening offer, sealed bid range, walk-away ceiling) is then derived from the statistical distribution of these adjusted sales — with conservative safety margins applied when data is thin or dated.
Every figure comes from actual government-recorded sale prices. No asking prices, no agent estimates, no automated valuations.

Methodology
Closed sales time-adjusted to current market · size-weighted where floor area available · no asking prices or agent estimates used.
How adjustments work
- —Older sales inflated to current market level so stale data doesn't skew bands
- —Similar-sized properties weighted more heavily where floor area is known
- —Local price trends factored in when sufficient data exists; no artificial uplift otherwise
- —All figures from registered closed sales only — no asking prices, no agent estimates
Local Market Notes
Property Quality
Energy Efficiency: With a C1 BER rating, this property offers significant energy efficiency, leading to estimated annual energy costs of €1,200-€1,600, compared to typical D-rated properties of similar size which could incur costs of €1,800-€2,200, representing annual savings of €600-€1,000.
Details
- Compact Living: At 69m², this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom end-of-terrace home offers a functional layout that aligns with the median bedroom and bathroom count for the 10km area, but the compact size may appeal more to a specific buyer segment seeking efficiency over spaciousness.
- Market Ready: The property's C1 BER rating positions it as a desirable, energy-efficient option ready for immediate occupancy, distinguishing it from potentially less efficient homes in the market where BER data for sold properties is largely unknown.
- Hypothesis: Despite its compact 69m² size for a 3-bedroom, the property's prime coastal location in Dunmore East and good C1 BER rating enable it to command a higher price-per-square-meter, as buyers prioritize location and energy efficiency over larger footprints in this specific sought-after village.
Amenities
Local Connectivity: The property benefits from regular Bus Éireann services, specifically Route 608 providing essential links to Waterford City, with Waterford Plunkett Station being the nearest train connection approximately 18km away for wider rail access.
Details
- Village Lifestyle: Residents can enjoy a vibrant coastal lifestyle with popular dining options like Strand Inn, Azzurro, The Lighthouse Bar & Restaurant, and The Spinnaker Bar & Restaurant, convenient shopping at Centra Dunmore East, and essential healthcare services at Dunmore East Health Centre, all within the village.
- Family & Walkability: The location offers excellent walkability with the scenic Dunmore East Cliff Walk and Dunmore East Park nearby, complemented by direct access to Dunmore East National School and childcare facilities like Dunmore East Childcare Centre and Little Bloomers Creche, making it highly appealing for families.
- Hypothesis: The property's location within a highly desirable coastal village like Dunmore East, despite its limited public transport options, commands a premium due to the abundance of natural amenities, unique lifestyle offerings, and strong community infrastructure which compensate for car dependency for broader connections.
