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: With a D1 BER rating, strategic improvements to achieve a B2 rating could cost an estimated €8,000-€12,000, potentially adding €15,000-€20,000 to the property's value, and reducing annual energy costs from €1,800-€2,200 to €800-€1,200.
Optimal Size & Layout: At 99m² with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, this apartment's size and configuration align perfectly with the median property profiles in the 5km, 10km, and 20km radii, indicating broad market appeal for its functional layout.
Below Market Per SqM: The apartment's asking price of approximately €2,626 per square meter is significantly below the estimated median square meter price of €3,232 for properties sold in the 5km radius over the last 90 days, presenting a strong value proposition.
Hypothesis: Despite its D1 BER rating, the property's advantageous pricing per square meter and standard 3-bed, 2-bath configuration positions it as a prime candidate for buyers seeking an immediate value opportunity, where a modest investment in energy efficiency upgrades could unlock substantial equity gain.
Amenities

Essential Local Services: Families are well-served with Lahinch National School and Ennistymon Community School nearby, along with convenient access to O'Looney's Pharmacy and SuperValu in Ennistymon (3km) for daily needs.
Hypothesis: Lahinch's unique blend of a renowned surfing beach, championship golf course, and proximity to major tourist attractions like the Cliffs of Moher ensures a consistent influx of visitors and seasonal residents, which will continue to underpin strong demand for properties with good access to local amenities, regardless of broader economic fluctuations.
