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: With a 'G' BER rating, upgrading to a 'B2' would necessitate an estimated investment of €8,000-€12,000, which could potentially increase the property's value by €15,000-€20,000 and significantly reduce annual energy costs from an estimated €1,800-€2,200.
Size and Space: The 100m² bungalow offers a standard living space for its 3-bedroom configuration, aligning with the median 3 beds within a 100km radius, but its value is heavily impacted by other quality factors.
Condition and Value: The significant gap between the estimated value of €273,453 and the asking price of €119,000 strongly suggests the property requires substantial renovation and upgrades to reach its market potential.
Hypothesis: The substantial discount on the asking price, coupled with the G BER rating, implies that the market is currently pricing in significant capital expenditure for energy efficiency upgrades and general refurbishment, which buyers will need to factor into their investment decisions.
Amenities
Transport Isolation: As this property is located in Kilfenora, Co. Clare, it is outside the immediate reach of Dublin's public transport network. Bus Eireann route 350 serves nearby areas like Ennistymon and Lisdoonvarna, but direct services to major urban centres are limited, requiring onward connections.
Local Facilities: Kilfenora village offers basic amenities, including local shops and a post office, with larger supermarkets like Tesco and Dunnes Stores found in Ennis (approximately 30km away) or Galway (approximately 70km away).
Healthcare Access: The closest major hospital is University Hospital Limerick, approximately 60km away, with smaller primary care centres and pharmacies available in nearby towns like Ennistymon.
Hypothesis: The rural setting of Kilfenora, while offering a tranquil lifestyle, presents a significant connectivity challenge for commuters, making it primarily attractive to those seeking a lifestyle away from urban hubs, where reliance on private transport is essential for accessing a wider range of amenities and employment centres.
