How this is calculated
We search the Property Price Register for closed sales near this property — matching by location, beds, property type, and where available, floor area (±20%). This gives us a set of genuinely comparable transactions.
Each sale is then time-adjusted to today using local price trends, so a sale from 18 months ago is inflated (or deflated) to reflect current market conditions. Where floor area is known, sales are also size-adjusted — a 90m² sale is normalised to what it would have sold for at this property's size. This means the figures you see aren't raw prices — they're what those same homes would likely sell for today, at this size.
Your bid strategy (opening offer, sealed bid range, walk-away ceiling) is then derived from the statistical distribution of these adjusted sales — with conservative safety margins applied when data is thin or dated.
Every figure comes from actual government-recorded sale prices. No asking prices, no agent estimates, no automated valuations.

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 Advantage: With a B3 BER rating, this property is expected to have annual energy costs approximately €500-€1,000 lower than a typical D-rated apartment of similar size in the area.
Details
- Generous Proportions: At 96.0m², this apartment is 13.8% larger than the average property size of 84.3m² within a 1km radius, offering superior living space.
- Value Optimization Opportunity: While the BER is B3, targeted upgrades to a B1 or A rating could potentially enhance value by €10,000-€15,000, with an estimated investment of €5,000-€8,000 for improved insulation and heating systems.
- Hypothesis: The B3 BER rating positions this apartment favourably, however, given the local market's strong price performance and the higher average BER ratings implied by the B3 rating against 100% unknown BERs within 1km, a proactive upgrade to B1 or A2 could capture an additional 2-3% premium in a competitive sales environment, representing a sound investment strategy to maximize resale value.
Amenities
Exceptional Connectivity: Located in Castleknock, this property is served by Dublin Bus routes 38, 38A, and 38B, offering direct access to the city centre, and is within a short drive of Coolmine Train Station.
Details
- Prime Educational Hub: The area boasts esteemed educational institutions including Castleknock College (secondary), St. Brigid's National School (primary), and close proximity to TU Dublin Blanchardstown Campus.
- Local Lifestyle: Residents benefit from immediate access to Farmleigh Estate's grounds, numerous cafes in Castleknock Village, and proximity to the vast Phoenix Park for recreation.
- Hypothesis: The strong amenity offering in Castleknock, particularly the combination of direct bus routes to the city centre and the proximity to quality educational facilities, indicates that the property's value is significantly underpinned by its location, suggesting that further infrastructure development or new retail centres in Dublin 15 would likely lead to a greater than average uplift in property values for this area.
