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 E2 BER rating to a C1 could cost an estimated €10,000-€15,000, potentially increasing the property's value by €20,000-€25,000 and improving its marketability.
Energy Cost Premium: Properties with an E2 BER rating typically incur annual energy costs of approximately €1,800-€2,200, whereas a similar-sized property with a B2 rating might see costs of €800-€1,200, highlighting a potential annual saving of €1,000.
Space Efficiency: At 86.0m², this 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom terrace property is of a standard size for its type, offering adequate living space but potentially lacking a second bathroom which is becoming increasingly desirable.
Hypothesis: The E2 BER rating presents a significant opportunity for value enhancement; a strategic investment in insulation, heating, and window upgrades could not only reduce ongoing energy expenses by an estimated €1,000 annually but also reposition the property to command a higher sale price, particularly if adjacent properties are similarly rated and can collectively benefit from economies of scale in upgrade projects.
Amenities
Transport Links: The area is served by Bus Éireann routes 215 and 226, providing direct connections to Cork City Centre and other key locations, enhancing commuter convenience.
Local Amenities: Residents have access to amenities such as Lidl and The Square Shopping Centre within a 1km radius, offering convenient retail options for daily needs.
Educational Access: Blarney has several primary schools including Scoil Ghobnatan Naofa and secondary schools like Scoil Mhuire Gan Smál, ensuring good educational facilities for families within close proximity.
Hypothesis: While public transport options are present, the lack of specific mention of train or Luas/DART lines serving Blarney directly implies that the primary mode of transport to larger urban centres like Cork City relies heavily on bus services and private vehicles, which could be a limiting factor for some buyers and a key area for future infrastructure development to increase property value.
