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
BER Improvement Potential: Upgrading the D BER rating to a B2 could cost approximately €8,000-€12,000, with a potential property value increase of €15,000-€20,000, representing a solid return on investment.
Size Efficiency: At 80.0m², this 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom end-of-terrace property offers a compact living space that may appeal to first-time buyers or downsizers, though it's on the smaller side for a family home.
Value Optimisation: The current asking price below the estimated value presents an opportunity for buyers to invest in BER improvements and cosmetic upgrades, potentially unlocking significant value beyond the initial purchase cost.
Hypothesis: The D BER rating, while a potential cost, aligns with the property's asking price being below its estimated value, suggesting an intended market position as a 'fixer-upper' or a property where buyers are expected to undertake energy efficiency upgrades to match the median BER ratings of potentially better-performing properties in the vicinity.
Amenities
Transport Links: While specific routes are not detailed, properties in Co. Dublin typically benefit from Dublin Bus services, with potential connectivity to routes serving the wider city.
Local Services: Oldtown, Co. Dublin, is generally served by local amenities such as primary schools, shops, and health services, contributing to a convenient lifestyle for residents.
Green Spaces: The rural setting of Oldtown likely offers access to local parks and countryside, enhancing walkability and providing opportunities for outdoor activities.
Hypothesis: The property's location in Oldtown, Co. Dublin, likely offers a quieter, more suburban lifestyle with reasonable access to essential amenities, but a lack of direct public transport links like Luas or DART stops within close proximity would necessitate car ownership for convenient commuting to Dublin city centre, impacting its appeal to urban-focused buyers.
