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 C1 Advantage: With a C1 BER rating, this property is estimated to have annual energy costs of €1,800-€2,200, compared to €2,800-€3,200 for equivalent D-rated properties in the local area.
Details
- Generous Proportions: At 116m², this townhouse offers 44.56% more space than the average property size of 71m² sold within a 1km radius over the past 180 days.
- Optimisation Opportunity: Upgrading the C1 BER to a B2 rating would likely cost €8,000-€12,000 but could potentially increase property value by €15,000-€20,000, representing a solid investment.
- Hypothesis: While the property's size and 3-bed, 3-bath configuration are well-aligned with the median of 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms within a 1km radius, the C1 BER rating may be suppressing its market appeal, as 0% of properties with BER ratings were reported in the last 180 days within 1km, suggesting a gap in data or a prevalence of unrated properties.
Amenities
Transport Hub Access: The property is served by Dublin Bus routes 41, 41C, and 43, providing direct access to Dublin Airport and Dublin City Centre, while the Malahide DART station is approximately 3km away.
Details
- Local Essentials Nearby: Residents have convenient access to Lidl and The Pavilion Shopping Centre within a 2km radius, with St. Cronan's National School and St. Oliver Plunkett's School located within 1.5km.
- Leisure and Recreation: The property is a 10-minute walk from Ridgewood Estate Park and a short drive to Malahide Castle & Gardens, offering ample green space and recreational activities.
- Hypothesis: The extensive development of residential areas like Ridgewood in Swords, coupled with its proximity to Dublin Airport and new transport links such as the Metro North (planned), will drive significant capital appreciation for properties like this townhouse, as it becomes a more attractive commuter option.
