Bid Model Unavailable
Not enough closed transaction data for this property.
We found 1 comparable transaction within 1.5km over the past 18 months. A minimum of 3 is required to derive a statistically reliable bid strategy. Purchasing a report is not available for this property.
This can happen for properties in lower-turnover areas or very specific property types. Check back as new transactions register on the Property Price Register, or search for a nearby comparable property.

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 Upgrade Investment: Upgrading the property's D BER rating to a more efficient B2 could involve an investment of €8,000-€12,000, but is projected to increase the property's market value by an estimated €15,000-€20,000, offering a clear return on investment.
Significant Energy Cost Savings: With a current D BER, annual energy expenses are estimated at €1,800-€2,200; however, improving to a B-rated standard could reduce these costs to €800-€1,200 annually, yielding substantial long-term savings.
Generous Size and Configuration: This 130m² semi-detached property, featuring 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, provides considerably more living space and bedrooms than the median 3-bedroom properties typically sold within a 5km radius over the past 180 days, appealing to larger families.
Hypothesis: As energy efficiency becomes a primary concern for Irish buyers, investing in the BER upgrade for this spacious 130m² property would not only reduce operational costs but also significantly enhance its market attractiveness and resale value, positioning it competitively against newer, higher-rated homes.
Amenities
Exceptional Transport Connectivity: The property benefits from excellent transport links, being minutes from Drumcondra Train Station and served by frequent Dublin Bus routes including the 1, 11, 16, 33, 41, and 44, ensuring convenient commutes to Dublin City Centre and beyond.
Proximity to Esteemed Education: Situated in a highly desirable area for families, the property is close to renowned educational institutions such as St Patrick's College (DCU Institute of Education), along with several well-regarded primary and secondary schools like Drumcondra National School and Ard Scoil Rís.
Vibrant Lifestyle and Green Spaces: Residents can enjoy a high quality of life with numerous cafes and restaurants in bustling Drumcondra Village, complemented by easy access to expansive green spaces like Griffith Park and the National Botanic Gardens for recreation and leisure.
Hypothesis: The strategic combination of comprehensive public transport, a strong educational infrastructure, and a rich array of local amenities in Drumcondra fosters a resilient and family-centric community, which consistently commands a premium in the Dublin property market and ensures sustained demand for homes like this.
