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: With an E1 BER rating, upgrading to a B2 could cost €8,000-€12,000 and potentially increase the property's value by €15,000-€20,000, representing a strong return on investment.
Details
- Generous Living Space: At 148m², the property offers a substantial 24.7m² per bedroom, which is larger than the typical 15-20m² per bedroom found in comparable properties.
- Value Optimization: The property's current asking price is €1,587 per m² (€235,000 / 148m²), significantly below the 10km median sale price per m² of approximately €2,800-€3,345 (€278,500/100m² to €334,500/100m² if we assume typical sizes for 4-bed properties), indicating substantial upside potential through renovation.
- Hypothesis: The current E1 BER rating represents a significant undervaluation in terms of potential energy cost savings and market appeal; a focused investment in insulation, heating systems, and glazing could not only reduce annual energy bills by an estimated €1,000-€1,400 compared to lower-rated homes but also unlock substantial capital appreciation, making it a compelling renovation project.
Amenities
Limited Direct Public Transport: While located on Castleblayney Road, specific bus routes or train stations serving this immediate vicinity are not detailed in the provided data, suggesting potential reliance on private transport for connectivity.
Details
- Local Retail and Services: Carrickmacross town centre, likely accessible from Castleblayney Road, would typically offer a range of local shops, supermarkets like Tesco or Dunnes Stores, pharmacies, and potentially a post office.
- Educational Proximity: The area is likely served by primary schools within Carrickmacross town such as Gaelscoil an Liosáin or St. Joseph's Primary School, and secondary schools like Beech Hill College or St. Louis Convent.
- Hypothesis: The property's location, while outside a major urban centre, benefits from the amenities of Carrickmacross town, but its value appreciation may be significantly influenced by future infrastructure investments, such as improved public transport links or the development of local green spaces, which would enhance its appeal to a broader buyer demographic.
