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
Significant BER Upgrade Opportunity: With an E1 BER rating, upgrading to a B2 could cost an estimated €8,000-€12,000, potentially increasing the property's value by €15,000-€20,000 and reducing annual energy costs from an estimated €1,800-€2,200 to €800-€1,200.
Details
- Spacious Configuration: At 149 sqm with 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, this property is larger than the average of 126.5 sqm within 1km, offering ample space that aligns with the higher end of family needs.
- Value Optimization Potential: The property's E1 BER rating is significantly below the typical B or C ratings seen in many modern sales, offering a clear opportunity for value enhancement through energy efficiency upgrades.
- Hypothesis: The E1 BER rating, while currently a disadvantage, represents a significant opportunity for value uplift. Strategic investment in insulation, heating systems, and potentially solar panels could not only recoup upgrade costs but also position the property competitively against higher-rated homes, particularly if coupled with modern interior finishes.
Amenities
Transport Hub Proximity: The area is served by Dublin Bus routes 25A, 66B, and 67, providing direct access to Dublin city centre and surrounding suburbs, with the Luas Red Line at The Square Tallaght stop accessible within a 15-minute drive.
Details
- Educational & Healthcare Access: Residents have access to numerous schools including St. Columba's College (1.2km), Loreto Beaufort (2.1km), and Our Lady's Children's Hospital Crumlin within a 6km radius.
- Local Lifestyle Hub: Rathfarnham Shopping Centre (1.5km) offers a variety of retail options, complemented by cafes and restaurants in Rathfarnham Village, and recreational opportunities at Marlay Park (2.5km).
- Hypothesis: The current amenity offering, while good, is slightly constrained by public transport directness to the city centre, often requiring a bus and Luas transfer. Future development plans for enhanced public transport links in Dublin 16, potentially including extensions or new cross-city routes, could significantly boost property values in this area by reducing commute times.
