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
Moderate Energy Efficiency: The C2 BER rating suggests an average energy performance; upgrading to a B2 rating could cost €8,000-€12,000 and potentially increase the property value by €15,000-€20,000, while lowering annual energy costs by an estimated €500-€800 compared to its current rating.
Details
- Compact Living Space: With a size of 63m², this 1-bedroom apartment offers a compact living space, which aligns with the typical offering for single-occupancy or couples in apartment developments.
- Value Optimization Potential: While the BER is C2, focusing on minor insulation upgrades and sealing drafts could cost under €1,000 and potentially yield a 5-10% improvement in energy efficiency and comfort, enhancing its market appeal.
- Hypothesis: Given the C2 BER, the property's current annual energy costs are likely in the range of €1,500-€2,000; a strategic investment of €3,000-€5,000 in targeted insulation and draught-proofing could boost the BER to a B3, potentially reducing annual costs by 15-20% and increasing resale value by €7,000-€10,000.
Amenities
Limited Direct Transport: Blessington is not directly served by Luas, DART, or commuter train stations; residents would likely rely on Dublin Bus routes such as the 65 or 65B, which have infrequent service, to access Red Line Luas at Tallaght or Park West.
Details
- Local Services Availability: The property is located in Blessington town, offering access to essential amenities like supermarkets (e.g., Tesco), pharmacies, and local shops, though major retail hubs require travel.
- Green Space Access: Parkview Villas' proximity to Blessington Lakes and the Wicklow Mountains National Park provides significant opportunities for outdoor recreation and lifestyle activities, enhancing quality of life.
- Hypothesis: The property's location in Blessington, while offering a more rural lifestyle, presents a significant commuting challenge to Dublin City, with the nearest Luas stop (Tallaght) being approximately 15km away and requiring a bus journey of over 30 minutes, impacting its appeal for daily commuters.
