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 Advantage: With a strong B BER rating, this property offers estimated annual energy costs of €1,000-€1,500, leading to potential savings of €1,500-€2,000 annually compared to typical D-rated semi-detached homes of similar size, enhancing long-term affordability.
Exceptional Size and Configuration: At 188m² with 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, this property is significantly larger than the median 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom homes found in the 10km and 20km radii, making it a compelling option for larger families or those seeking expansive living space.
Fair Value Proposition: The asking price of €345,000 is closely aligned with its estimated valuation of €340,534, suggesting a well-considered initial pricing strategy reflective of its spacious 5-bedroom layout and modern energy rating.
Hypothesis: The property's superior BER 'B' rating and expansive 188m² footprint positions it as a highly desirable, future-proof family home in an area where most offerings are smaller, potentially commanding a stronger price once local market dynamics stabilise and its inherent value is recognized.
