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
Substantial Size Advantage: At 309 sqm, this detached house is significantly larger than the average property size of 125 sqm within a 1km radius over the last 180 days, offering considerable living space.
Details
- BER Rating Investment Opportunity: The 'Unknown' BER rating (SI_666) presents an opportunity for significant value enhancement; upgrading from a typical 'D' rating to a 'B2' could cost €8,000-€12,000 and potentially increase property value by €15,000-€20,000.
- Configuration Above Local Norms: With 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, this property significantly exceeds the median of 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms within a 1km radius over the last 180 days, catering to larger households or those seeking more space.
- Hypothesis: The 'Unknown' BER rating for this property and 100% of comparable properties within 1km, 3km, and 5km suggests a lack of standardized energy efficiency reporting in the immediate area for larger homes; a proactive move to obtain and improve the BER could provide a significant competitive advantage and cost savings for future owners.
Amenities
Excellent Public Transport Access: The property is well-served by Dublin Bus routes including 46A, 17, and 18, and is within a manageable distance to the Luas Green Line at Cowper stop (approx. 1km), facilitating easy commuting.
Details
- Prime Educational Hub: The vicinity boasts a strong educational ecosystem with prestigious schools such as Gonzaga College (1.2km), Muckross Park College (1.3km), and Rathgar Junior School (0.8km), making it highly attractive for families.
- Vibrant Local Lifestyle: Residents have access to a plethora of amenities including high-end boutiques and cafes on Rathgar Road (0.5km), the bustling shops of Terenure Village (1.8km), and the expansive green space of Bushy Park (0.9km).
- Hypothesis: The concentration of high-performing secondary schools within a 1.5km radius, coupled with a high median number of bedrooms and bathrooms in the property itself, suggests that properties in this specific micro-location are increasingly valued by affluent families seeking both spacious family homes and proximity to top-tier education, potentially driving sustained premium pricing.
