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 · 37% Above Median

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 Rating Impact: The SI_666 BER rating indicates a significant opportunity for energy efficiency upgrades, with typical costs of €8,000-€12,000 to reach a B2 rating, potentially increasing property value by €15,000-€20,000.
Generous Proportions: At 320m², this 7-bedroom, 4-bathroom semi-detached home offers substantial living space, significantly exceeding the typical size expectations for many Dublin properties.
Value Optimization Potential: While the property is large, its current BER rating (SI_666) suggests potential annual energy costs of €1,800-€2,200. Upgrading to a B2 rating could reduce these costs by €1,000-€1,400 annually, enhancing its long-term value proposition.
Hypothesis: The substantial size of this 7-bedroom property, combined with its relatively high asking price, suggests it is targeted at large families or those requiring significant home office space; however, its current BER rating means a substantial capital expenditure will be required to align it with modern energy efficiency standards and achieve its full market potential.
Amenities
Transport Links: The property is well-served by Dublin Bus routes 25, 66, and 67 which operate along Main Street, providing direct access to Dublin City Centre.
Local Conveniences: Nearby amenities include numerous shops and supermarkets on Main Street, Lucan, with the Liffey Valley Shopping Centre approximately a 10-minute drive away for a wider retail offering.
Educational Hub: The area boasts several primary schools, including Lucan National School, and secondary schools such as Lucan Community College, all within easy commuting distance for families.
Hypothesis: The proximity to multiple Dublin Bus routes and essential local services suggests strong walkability and commuter appeal, which, if complemented by nearby Luas or train line extensions, could significantly enhance future property values in this established Lucan location.
