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
Efficient BER Rating: With a B BER rating, this property likely has annual energy costs of €900-€1,300, compared to potentially €2,000-€2,600 for a D-rated property of similar size.
Details
- Optimal Size for Type: At 101m² and 3 bedrooms, this detached house aligns well with the median of 3 bedrooms within the 100km radius market, suggesting good market suitability.
- Value-Add Potential: While the BER is good, achieving an A rating through targeted insulation and heating upgrades, costing an estimated €5,000-€9,000, could potentially increase property value by €10,000-€15,000 and further reduce annual energy costs.
- Hypothesis: The prevalent B BER rating within the 100km radius, with 100% of properties showing unknown BERs in the provided data, indicates a general upward trend in energy efficiency. Properties with A ratings in this region are likely to command a noticeable premium, suggesting that proactive upgrades to achieve an A rating would offer a strong return on investment and future-proofing.
Amenities
Limited Direct Transport: Based on the property's rural location in Carnew, Co. Wicklow, specific direct bus routes, train stations, or Luas stops serving the immediate vicinity are not readily apparent in the provided data.
Details
- Local Services Accessibility: While specific shopping centres and restaurants are not detailed for Ballingate, Carnew, the property's location implies reliance on local village amenities and potentially longer travel times for larger retail or dining options.
- Healthcare Proximity: Access to healthcare would likely involve travel to the nearest town or larger centre, with specific hospitals or clinics serving Carnew needing further local investigation.
- Hypothesis: The property's rural positioning in Ballingate, Carnew, indicates a lower reliance on public transport and urban amenities compared to properties closer to major centres. This suggests that the primary buyer demographic for this property will prioritize a quieter lifestyle and potentially be less sensitive to commute times, valuing space and tranquillity over immediate access to a wide range of services.
