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 Upgrade Potential: Upgrading the D2 BER rating to a B2 would likely cost between €8,000 - €12,000, potentially increasing the property's value by €15,000 - €20,000 based on typical improvements in energy efficiency and market desirability.
Details
- Generous Size: At 251m², this detached property offers a substantial living area, which is considerably larger than the median of 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms found in properties within a 100km radius.
- Value Optimization: Given the D2 BER rating, investing in insulation and heating upgrades could improve annual energy costs, estimated at €1,800-€2,200 for a D-rated property of this size, potentially saving €800-€1,200 annually compared to an A2-rated property.
- Hypothesis: The significant discrepancy between the property's size and its BER rating, coupled with the low number of recent sales within 5km, suggests that buyers in this specific area may prioritize energy efficiency and modern standards over sheer size, creating an opportunity for value enhancement through targeted BER improvements.
Amenities
Limited Local Transport: There are no specific bus routes, train stations, Luas, or DART stations listed as serving Ballykeeran, Kilmacrennan directly, suggesting a reliance on private transport for connectivity.
Details
- Basic Local Services: Information on specific schools, healthcare facilities, or shopping centres within close proximity to Ballykeeran, Kilmacrennan is not provided, indicating a potential need for travel to larger towns for amenities.
- Low Walkability Potential: Without defined walking routes or pedestrian infrastructure mentioned, walkability to essential services is likely limited in this rural setting, suggesting a property more suited to those prioritizing quiet country living over convenience.
- Hypothesis: The absence of readily available public transport and documented local amenities in Ballykeeran, Kilmacrennan suggests that the value of properties in this area is primarily driven by rural lifestyle appeal and land, rather than proximity to urban conveniences or commuter links.
