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
BER Rating Investment Opportunity: A BER C2 rating suggests potential for significant value enhancement; upgrading to a B2 rating could cost an estimated €8,000-€12,000 and potentially increase property value by €15,000-€20,000, representing a sound investment.
Details
- Size and Configuration Value: At 88m² with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, the property's size and configuration align with the median of 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom (within 1km over 180 days), indicating it is well-suited for the local demand.
- Energy Cost Savings: While C2 is a respectable rating, moving towards an A or B rating could offer annual energy cost savings of €800-€1,200 compared to D-rated properties of similar size, making future upgrades a financially sensible consideration.
- Hypothesis: Given that 100% of properties within 1km have an unknown BER rating in the provided data, this property's explicitly stated C2 rating, while not top-tier, provides a tangible advantage and marketability over unrated properties, suggesting a potential for a 'quality premium' once buyers become aware of the explicit energy performance.
Amenities
Transport Connectivity Hub: The property is well-served by Dublin Bus routes 25, 66, and 67, offering direct access to the city centre, and is within reasonable proximity to the Luas Red Line.
Details
- Educational and Healthcare Access: The area boasts strong educational facilities with St. Mary's Primary School and St. Patrick's Secondary School nearby, and excellent healthcare access via St. James's Hospital (3km) and local pharmacies.
- Vibrant Lifestyle and Retail: Residents benefit from a rich lifestyle offering including cafes like The Little Bird Cafe, restaurants such as Bastible, and proximity to retail hubs like the George's Street Arcade for diverse shopping options.
- Hypothesis: The high walkability score suggested by its Portobello location, combined with direct access to key Dublin Bus routes and the availability of two bathrooms, positions this property as highly desirable for young professionals and couples who prioritize both urban convenience and a comfortable home environment, potentially commanding a premium over properties with less direct transport links or fewer bathrooms within the same price bracket.
