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 Improvement Opportunity: Upgrading the E1 BER rating to a B2 could cost an estimated €10,000-€15,000 but is projected to increase the property value by €20,000-€25,000, offering a tangible return on investment.
Space Efficiency: At 75m², this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom property is relatively compact for its bedroom count, potentially impacting perceived value compared to larger homes in the same €8,264/sqm local market segment.
Energy Cost Impact: The E1 BER rating likely results in annual energy costs of €1,800-€2,200, significantly higher than the €800-€1,200 for comparable B-rated properties, representing a substantial ongoing expense for the buyer.
Hypothesis: Given the E1 BER, the estimated €10,000-€15,000 cost to upgrade to a B2 rating represents not just a value enhancement but also an imperative for long-term affordability, as the €1,000-€1,400 annual energy saving would offset a significant portion of mortgage interest over a typical loan term.
Amenities
Premier Transport Hub: The property is well-served by DART stations at Dalkey and Glenageary, providing swift access to Dublin city centre, complemented by Dublin Bus routes 7 and 45A connecting to surrounding areas.
Prime Local Services: Residents benefit from proximity to a range of shops and cafes in Dalkey village, alongside healthcare access at the Royal Hospital Donnybrook and local pharmacies.
Family & Lifestyle Hub: Excellent educational facilities like Loreto Abbey Dalkey and Rathdown School are nearby, along with lifestyle amenities such as the scenic walks along the coast and numerous highly-rated restaurants like Finnegan's.
Hypothesis: The exceptional walkability of Dalkey village, combined with the proximity of two DART stations and a frequent bus service, creates a powerful 'car-optional' lifestyle appeal that commands a significant premium, even if not explicitly reflected in square meter metrics alone.
