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 C3 Investment Opportunity: Upgrading the C3 BER rating to a B2 would likely cost between €8,000-€12,000 but could potentially increase the property's value by €15,000-€20,000, offering a good return on investment.
Generous Space Allocation: At 120m², this property offers a larger floor area than many comparable properties, with the median size within 10km being smaller.
Configuration Alignment: The property's 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms align perfectly with the median of 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms sold within 100km over the past 180 days.
Hypothesis: The C3 BER rating, while adequate, presents a significant opportunity for value enhancement through targeted energy efficiency upgrades, which could unlock a substantial value uplift of 5-10% beyond typical market appreciation.
Amenities
Transport Connectivity: Athy is served by Bus Eireann routes 181, 182, and 183, providing connections to Dublin and surrounding towns, and is also close to Athy Train Station.
Local Amenities: Residents have access to SuperValu, Lidl, and a variety of local shops and eateries in Athy town centre, along with healthcare facilities like Athy Medical Centre.
Educational and Family Services: The property is within proximity to Scoil Mhuire Gan Smal (primary) and Athy Vocational School (secondary), as well as the Bright Start Childcare facility.
Hypothesis: The continued development and potential future integration of Athy into enhanced public transport networks, such as improved rail services or park-and-ride facilities for Dublin commuters, could significantly boost property values in the area over the next 5-10 years.
