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
Efficient BER Rating: With a strong C1 BER rating, this property enjoys good energy efficiency, leading to estimated annual heating and electricity costs of approximately €1,400-€1,800, notably less than the €2,000-€2,500 typical for a D-rated house of similar size, offering annual savings of €600-€700.
Details
- Generous Living Space: This substantial 146m² detached residence, featuring 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, offers considerably more living space and amenities than the median 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom property typical of sales within the 5km radius, catering to larger families or those seeking extra room.
- Investment for Enhanced Value: The property's spacious 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom detached configuration on 146m² represents a highly sought-after family home profile; upgrading its C1 BER to a B2 could further enhance its market appeal and command a higher premium, potentially adding €10,000-€15,000 in value for an investment of €5,000-€8,000.
- Hypothesis: While already well-configured, enhancing the property's C1 BER to a B-rated standard through targeted insulation and heating upgrades would not only significantly reduce long-term running costs but also position it competitively against new builds, potentially shortening sales cycles in the current high-value segment.
Amenities
Robust Transport Network: Excellent transport links in Rochestown include proximity to Bus Éireann routes 216, 220, and 223, providing direct access to Cork City Centre, with convenient road connectivity to the N28 and N40 South Ring Road for wider regional travel.
Details
- Comprehensive Lifestyle Offerings: A rich array of lifestyle amenities defines the area, with top schools like Rochestown Educate Together and Scoil Phádraig Naofa nearby, comprehensive retail options at Douglas Village and Mahon Point Shopping Centres, and healthcare facilities including Rochestown Clinic and Cork University Hospital easily accessible.
- High Walkability & Local Access: The property benefits from strong walkability within Thornbury Heights, offering pedestrian access to local services, and scenic routes along the Lough Mahon Estuary and nearby Harty's Quay, promoting an active and engaged community lifestyle.
- Hypothesis: Rochestown's established reputation as a prime family-oriented suburb, bolstered by its strong educational and recreational infrastructure, will likely sustain high demand for larger family homes like this, making it resilient to broader market fluctuations due to its inherent quality of life appeal.
