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 Efficiency: With a B BER rating, this apartment is energy efficient, placing it above average for older stock and potentially leading to annual energy cost savings of €500-€900 compared to a typical D-rated property of similar size.
Space Allocation: Measuring 120m² with 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, the property offers generous living space per bedroom, with approximately 60m² per bedroom, suggesting good potential for comfortable living.
Value Optimisation: The asking price of €285,000 is below the estimated value of €295,821, presenting an opportunity for a buyer to secure the property at a slight discount, potentially allowing for further interior enhancements.
Hypothesis: While the B BER rating is good, strategic upgrades to insulation and heating systems could push this property towards an A-rating, potentially increasing its market value by €10,000-€15,000 and further reducing annual energy bills by an additional €300-€500.
Amenities
Transport Links: While not serviced by specific bus routes, train stations, Luas or DART lines mentioned in the data, Bantry's connectivity would rely on local bus services for regional access.
Local Services: Bantry town itself offers essential amenities including supermarkets (e.g., SuperValu), primary and secondary schools (e.g., St. Mary's National School, Coláiste Pobail Bheanntraí), and healthcare facilities (e.g., Bantry General Hospital, local pharmacies).
Leisure & Retail: The Quay area provides immediate access to the waterfront, with local restaurants, cafes, and boutique shops contributing to a vibrant lifestyle, and Bantry town centre is within easy walking distance for broader retail options.
Hypothesis: The property's location on The Quay, Bantry, suggests a strong appeal to lifestyle buyers and those valuing a coastal town environment, with its value likely appreciating in line with any improvements to regional transport links or further development of Bantry's tourism and cultural offerings.
