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 Upgrade Potential: Improving the E2 BER rating to a B2 could cost approximately €10,000-€15,000 and potentially increase the property's value by €18,000-€25,000, representing a sound investment.
Annual Energy Costs: The E2 BER rating implies annual energy costs of roughly €1,800-€2,400, which are significantly higher than the €800-€1,200 estimated for a B2 rated property of similar size.
Space Efficiency: With 120m² and 2 bedrooms, this semi-detached property offers a relatively spacious layout for its bedroom count, with 60m² per bedroom, which is generally favourable for buyer appeal.
Hypothesis: Given the median sale price of €308,370 within 5km, the current asking price of €235,000 coupled with the E2 BER suggests a potential for significant value uplift. A targeted €15,000 investment in improving the BER to a C1 could unlock an additional €30,000 in market value, achieving a €45,000 gross return.
Amenities
Transport Connectivity: While specific local bus routes are not provided, Co. Kildare properties outside Dublin typically rely on Bus Éireann routes connecting to larger towns; nearest train station would likely be at Newbridge or Kildare Town, requiring car access.
Healthcare Access: Access to healthcare would likely involve local GP services in Moone or Timolin, with larger hospitals such as Naas General Hospital located approximately 30-40 minutes away by car.
Lifestyle Amenities: Local amenities are likely limited to essential services in Moone and Timolin, with shopping, dining, and more extensive recreational facilities requiring travel to larger centres like Athy or Newbridge.
Hypothesis: The property's 'outside Dublin' designation suggests a reliance on private transport, with the nearest significant public transport hubs and comprehensive amenities likely being over 10km away. This lack of immediate, high-frequency public transport and diverse local services could limit its appeal to commuters and those seeking urban conveniences, potentially impacting its long-term value growth compared to better-connected locations.
