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: The C3 BER rating suggests moderate energy efficiency. Upgrading to a B2 rating could cost an estimated €8,000-€12,000, potentially increasing the property's value by €15,000-€20,000 and reducing annual energy costs from an estimated €1,600-€2,000 to €900-€1,300.
Efficient Size: At 66.0m², this 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom townhouse offers efficient living space, well-suited for its size and potentially appealing for first-time buyers or downsizers.
Value Optimization: With a BER C3, investing in insulation, window upgrades, or a more efficient heating system could optimize value, as a higher BER rating is increasingly a selling point and can command a premium.
Hypothesis: Given the C3 BER rating, a strategic focus on improving insulation and air-tightness, rather than a complete overhaul, could yield the best return on investment for value optimization, potentially increasing the property's market appeal and future sale price by targeting the most cost-effective upgrades first.
Amenities
Transport Links: While specific bus routes for Youghal are not provided in the data, its location outside Dublin suggests reliance on local bus services and potentially regional connections, with no Luas or DART stations available.
Local Services: Youghal, Co. Cork, typically offers a range of local amenities including primary and secondary schools, health services like Mercy Hospital Cork (approx. 50km away), and local pharmacies, along with various shops and supermarkets.
Walkable Town: Youghal is a historic town with a generally walkable centre, offering pedestrian access to local shops, cafes such as The Quays Bar & Restaurant, and parks like The Green, enhancing daily convenience.
Hypothesis: The relative lack of direct, high-frequency public transport connectivity compared to urban centres like Dublin means that properties in Youghal are likely valued more on local lifestyle amenities and the appeal of a coastal town lifestyle, with a higher emphasis placed on proximity to essential services and community hubs rather than commuter links.
