Price Distribution Analysis
4 verified closed sales within 5.0km · 36 months. Size-adjusted for similar homes (type match, beds ±1, size ±20%). Filters broadened to increase sample size.
Asking price is positioned above the median of comparable sales. This places the property outside the core transaction band where most comparable homes closed. Median anchored to size-similar transactions.

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 Improvement Opportunity: Upgrading the D2 BER rating to a B2 could cost an estimated €8,000-€12,000 and potentially increase the property value by €15,000-€20,000.
Costly Efficiency Gap: With a D2 BER rating, annual energy costs are estimated to be €1,800-€2,200, compared to €800-€1,200 for a B-rated property of similar size in the 100km radius market.
Compact Footprint: At 65m², this townhouse offers 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, which is on the smaller side for typical family housing, but aligns with the 3-bedroom median across all radii, suggesting a functional but potentially compact living space.
Hypothesis: The significant gap between the current D2 BER and achievable B-rated energy efficiency presents a clear value-add opportunity, and by investing in a targeted retrofit, the owners could not only reduce ongoing energy expenses but also enhance the property's market appeal and resale value, particularly in a market where energy efficiency is increasingly a purchasing driver.
Amenities
Limited Direct Transport: While Bandon is served by local bus services, there are no direct Luas, DART, or mainline train stations within close proximity, meaning commuters would likely rely on bus services to reach Cork city for onward public transport connections.
Local Shopping Access: The property is situated on Oliver Plunkett Street, implying proximity to Bandon town's commercial centre, likely offering essential retail, including supermarkets like SuperValu and Lidl, and various local shops.
Healthcare Proximity: Bandon Community Hospital is located within the town, providing accessible healthcare services, alongside local pharmacies and GP practices, enhancing the convenience for residents.
Hypothesis: The current amenity profile of Bandon suggests a strong local community focus with essential services readily available, but the lack of direct rapid transit to larger urban centres like Cork may limit its appeal to a specific buyer demographic, potentially making it more attractive to those prioritizing a quieter, community-based lifestyle or those with existing local ties, rather than long-distance commuters seeking seamless public transport.
