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 C3 Rating: This property has a C3 BER rating, indicating moderate energy efficiency; upgrading to a B2 rating could cost an estimated €8,000-€12,000 and potentially increase the property's value by €15,000-€20,000.
Details
- Space Efficiency: At 80.0m², this duplex offers a compact living space, which aligns with the median 3-bedroom properties in the 100km radius (3.0 beds), suggesting it is appropriately sized for its market segment.
- Value Optimization Opportunity: The significant difference between the estimated value (€348,895.59) and the asking price (€175,000) suggests that the property may require substantial investment to reach its potential value, or there are specific market factors at play affecting its current valuation.
- Hypothesis: Given the C3 BER rating, targeted insulation upgrades and a modern heating system installation, estimated at €8,000-€12,000, could elevate the BER to a B rating, potentially adding €15,000-€20,000 in value and reducing annual energy costs by approximately €400-€600 compared to its current rating.
Amenities
Limited Transport Options: There are no specific bus routes, train stations, Luas, or DART stations mentioned as serving Dawros, Co. Galway, indicating potentially limited public transport connectivity.
Details
- Local Facilities Gap: Without specific details on nearby schools, hospitals, or major shopping centers in Dawros, Co. Galway, access to essential services and amenities appears to be a significant consideration for this location.
- Potential for Car Dependency: The absence of clearly listed local amenities and transport links suggests that residents of 28 Millbrook would likely be reliant on private transport for daily needs and commuting.
- Hypothesis: The rural location in Dawros, Co. Galway, coupled with the lack of specific transport and amenity data, suggests that the property's value is heavily dependent on its proximity to larger towns or regional centres, and any future development or infrastructure improvements in nearby areas could significantly impact its long-term appeal and value.
