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 Energy Use: With a C3 BER rating, this property offers good energy efficiency, estimated to incur annual energy costs of €1,500-€1,900, which is a saving of €300-€700 annually compared to typical D-rated properties of similar size.
Details
- Compact & Manageable: At 61m² with 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, this bungalow offers a compact and easily manageable living space, notably smaller than the median 3-4 bedroom properties with 2-3 bathrooms found in the 5km and 20km radii, appealing to downsizers or single occupants.
- Bungalow Appeal: As a bungalow, this property benefits from single-story living, often commanding a premium for accessibility and ease of maintenance, contrasting with the multi-story homes common in Irish markets.
- Hypothesis: While the BER is already good, strategic minor enhancements to outdoor space or smart home technology could further elevate this compact bungalow's appeal, potentially commanding a higher per-square-meter price due to its highly sought-after single-story configuration in a market dominated by larger, multi-level homes.
Amenities
Regional Connectivity: The property offers regional transport links via Bus Éireann routes such as 167/167A to Drogheda and Route 170 to Dundalk, with the nearest train stations located in Drogheda MacBride and Dundalk Clarke, providing wider commuting options.
Details
- Essential Local Services: Residents benefit from convenient access to essential amenities including Monastery National School and Ardee Community School, Ardee Primary Care Centre, and major supermarkets like SuperValu and Lidl, all within Ardee town.
- Leisure & Walkability: Enjoy local lifestyle amenities such as Ardee Golf Club and historical Ardee Castle, with the town centre approximately a 1.5km walk from Moorehall Lodge, offering local cafes like The Bakehouse and pedestrian-friendly routes.
- Hypothesis: The absence of a direct train station within Ardee positions this property as ideal for buyers seeking a quieter, well-serviced town with strong road connections to larger hubs like Drogheda and Dundalk, potentially attracting commuters willing to drive short distances for onward rail links, thus maintaining steady demand for homes in the area.
