PPR closed sales · size & time adjusted · no asking prices used
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 B Advantage: The property's B BER rating is good, meaning potential annual energy cost savings are estimated at €800-€1,200 compared to a D-rated property of similar size (estimated €1,800-€2,200 annually).
Details
- Spacious Living: With 120m² and 3 bedrooms, the property offers a good size, aligning with the median of 3 bedrooms and slightly larger than the median of 1 bathroom within a 10km radius.
- Value Optimization: Given the asking price, investing in minor cosmetic upgrades to enhance appeal could yield significant value increases, potentially adding €15,000-€20,000 to its value if it aligns with local buyer preferences and market standards.
- Hypothesis: Despite a good BER rating, the property's single bathroom may present a market mismatch in areas where newer constructions within a 20km radius average 2.5 bathrooms, potentially capping its value uplift without further renovation, even with a competitive asking price.
Amenities
Limited Transport: Public transport options are scarce, with the nearest services likely requiring travel to Letterkenny or Dungloe for frequent bus routes.
Details
- Local Amenities: Basic local amenities are available in Gortahork village, including local shops and potentially a primary school, but access to larger supermarkets and a wider range of retail facilities would require travel to larger towns.
- Rural Lifestyle: The property is situated in a rural setting, offering a quieter lifestyle with potential for walking and outdoor activities, but with limited immediate access to specialized healthcare facilities or diverse entertainment options.
- Hypothesis: The rural location of Ardsbeg, Gortahork, suggests that future infrastructure development, particularly improved broadband connectivity or localized community facilities, could significantly enhance its desirability and property values, transforming it from a purely scenic location to one with greater practical appeal.
