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 Investment: A BER C1 rating suggests potential for energy efficiency improvements, where upgrading to a B2 rating could cost approximately €8,000-€12,000 and potentially increase the property's value by €15,000-€20,000.
Annual Savings: With a C1 BER, annual energy costs are estimated at €1,200-€1,600, compared to potentially €800-€1,200 for properties with an A or B rating of similar size, offering annual savings of €400-€400.
Space Efficiency: The property offers 116.0m² of living space with 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, providing a good balance for a family or those needing flexible space, compared to smaller 2-bedroom units prevalent in some urban cores.
Hypothesis: Given the €452,572.19 estimated value and 116.0m² size, the price per square meter is approximately €3,901, which is slightly below the 1km radius median of €4,848/sqm (180d), suggesting that while the price is competitive, there might be an opportunity to enhance value through targeted BER improvements and modern finishes.
Amenities
Transport Hub: Ridgewood is well-served by Dublin Bus routes 41C, 43, and 102, providing direct access to Dublin Airport and the city centre, with the nearest train station at Donabate (a short drive or bus journey) offering commuter links.

Family Amenities: The area is supported by educational facilities such as St. Helen's Junior School and St. Peter's College, complemented by childcare options like Bright Beginnings Creche and nearby parks including Ridgewood Community Park.
Hypothesis: The strategic location of Swords, with its strong retail, educational, and transport infrastructure including proximity to the M1 motorway, is likely to continue driving demand for family-oriented townhouses like this one, suggesting a sustained upward pressure on property values in the coming years.
