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 C3 BER rating to a B2 would likely cost €8,000-€12,000 and could increase the property's value by €15,000-€20,000, offering a clear return on investment.
Details
- Size Efficiency: The 120m² size for a 1-bedroom apartment is exceptionally large for Dublin 7, offering significant potential for reconfiguration or maximizing living space, a key value driver.
- Costly Upgrade Path: With a C3 BER rating, annual energy costs are estimated to be €1,500-€2,000 higher than a B-rated property of similar size, representing a significant ongoing expense for the buyer.
- Hypothesis: Given the unusually large size for a 1-bedroom unit and its C3 BER, a strategic investment in energy efficiency upgrades, aiming for a B2 rating, could not only recoup costs but also unlock significant value by aligning the property with higher market expectations for modern standards and lower running costs.
Amenities
Excellent Transport Hub: Located near North Brunswick Street, residents have access to multiple Dublin Bus routes including 25, 66, and 67, with the Luas Red Line at Smithfield stop approximately 500m away.
Details
- Prime Educational Access: The property is within walking distance of educational institutions like St. Mary's Primary School (500m) and St. Patrick's Cathedral Choir School (700m), enhancing family appeal.
- Vibrant Lifestyle Amenities: Close proximity to a range of cafes and restaurants along Smithfield and Stoneybatter, with the Jameson Distillery Bow St. (400m) and the Lighthouse Cinema (600m) offering entertainment options.
- Hypothesis: The concentration of diverse amenities, including significant transport links and cultural attractions within a 1km radius, coupled with the large apartment size, positions this property to benefit from gentrification trends, potentially attracting young professionals and couples seeking urban living with convenient access to employment and leisure.
