Bid Model Unavailable
Not enough closed transaction data for this property.
We found 4 comparable transactions within 5.0km over the past 36 months. A minimum of 3 is required to derive a statistically reliable bid strategy. Purchasing a report is not available for this property.
This can happen for properties in lower-turnover areas or very specific property types. Check back as new transactions register on the Property Price Register, or search for a nearby comparable property.
Price Distribution Analysis
4 verified closed sales within 5.0km · 36 months. Size-adjusted for similar homes (type match, beds ±1, size ±20%). Filters broadened to increase sample size.
Asking price is positioned above the median of comparable sales. This places the property outside the core transaction band where most comparable homes closed. Median anchored to size-similar transactions.
This chart shows where the asking price sits versus recent verified closed sales. It does not show your bid strategy.Same baseline as Market Position — size-adjusted.
Financial Exposure · 24% Above Median
If purchased at asking, you are paying above where most similar homes sold. A defined ceiling is designed to close this gap.

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 Efficiency: The B3 BER rating indicates good energy efficiency, likely resulting in annual energy costs between €1,400-€1,800, significantly lower than a typical D-rated property of similar size which would incur costs of €2,200-€2,800.
Spacious Accommodation: With 290.0m² of living space and 5 bedrooms, this detached property offers ample room, likely providing a high degree of spatial comfort compared to smaller, more common property types in areas with lower median sale prices.
Value Optimization Potential: While already B3, achieving an A3 BER rating could involve upgrades costing approximately €7,000-€10,000, potentially increasing the property's market value by an estimated €10,000-€15,000.
Hypothesis: The B3 BER rating on a property of this size suggests a relatively modern build or significant retrofitting; however, the absence of specific data on the age and condition of internal components (kitchens, bathrooms, heating systems) means there could be a substantial opportunity to enhance value by upgrading these elements, potentially adding 5-10% to the current estimated value.
Amenities
Limited Transport Links: Based on the location in Swanlinbar, Co. Cavan, direct access to major transport hubs like Dublin Bus routes, Luas stops, or DART stations is unlikely; typically, services would be local bus routes such as Bus Éireann routes 462 or 32.
Local Services: Residents are likely reliant on local amenities within Swanlinbar, which may include a local post office, a few retail shops, and potentially a primary school like St. Mary's National School, but access to larger shopping centres or diverse dining options would require travel to larger towns like Enniskillen or Cavan Town.
Healthcare Access: The nearest significant healthcare facilities would likely be Cavan General Hospital (approx. 45-minute drive) or the South West Acute Hospital in Enniskillen, Northern Ireland (approx. 30-minute drive), with local pharmacies and GP services available in Swanlinbar itself.
Hypothesis: The property's rural location in Swanlinbar, Co. Cavan, suggests that its value proposition is driven by lifestyle and tranquility rather than commuter convenience or access to urban amenities, indicating that buyers for this property are likely seeking a more secluded lifestyle, and thus marketability may be influenced by local community facilities and natural surroundings rather than public transport connectivity.
