Price Distribution Analysis
4 verified closed sales within 5.0km · 36 months. Size-adjusted for similar homes (type match, beds ±1, size ±20%). Filters broadened to increase sample size.
Asking price is positioned above the median of comparable sales. This places the property outside the core transaction band where most comparable homes closed. Median anchored to size-similar transactions.
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 · 18% 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
Substantial BER Upgrade Needed: With an E2 BER rating, upgrading to a B2 could cost an estimated €15,000-€20,000 but could increase the property's value by €25,000-€35,000.
Average Size for Area: The 120m² size is standard for a 4-bedroom detached property, fitting within the 'Large' size category based on available data.
Value Optimization Opportunity: Investing in BER improvements from E2 to B2, which typically involves insulation and heating upgrades, could significantly enhance future resale value and reduce annual energy costs by an estimated €800-€1,200 compared to the current rating.
Hypothesis: The significant disparity between the current E2 BER rating and the higher BER ratings observed in the 10km radius median sales (where BER is consistently unknown but likely higher given sale prices), suggests that a strategic investment in energy efficiency upgrades could unlock substantial capital appreciation, potentially repositioning this property from an E2 to a strong B2.
Amenities
Limited Public Transport: Public transport options for Ballycannoe South, Lisdoonvarna are scarce, with the nearest discernible bus route likely being Bus Éireann services to Ennis or Galway, requiring significant travel to access.
Remote Rural Setting: Key amenities such as specific schools, hospitals, or major shopping centres are not detailed for this immediate rural location, suggesting reliance on neighbouring towns like Ennistymon or Ennis for such services.
Low Walkability: The property's rural setting implies low walkability, with essential services and amenities likely requiring car travel over several kilometres.
Hypothesis: The absence of specific, easily accessible amenities and direct public transport links in Ballycannoe South suggests that the property's value is heavily reliant on its rural charm and potential for renovation, rather than convenience, which may appeal to a niche buyer profile seeking an escape from urban life.
