Limited recent transaction volume reduces trend precision. Strategy remains anchored to closed-sale distribution.
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 C1 Opportunity: A BER C1 rating suggests potential for significant cost savings; upgrading to a B2 rating could cost approximately €8,000-€12,000, potentially increasing the property's value by €15,000-€20,000.
Spacious Living: At 120.0m², this 4-bedroom townhouse offers a generous living space, which is well-configured for family living or shared accommodation.
Value Optimisation: With a C1 BER rating, annual energy costs are estimated to be €1,400-€1,800, compared to €2,000-€2,500 for a typical D-rated property of similar size, offering immediate savings.
Hypothesis: The C1 BER rating, while not top-tier, represents an achievable upgrade path that could significantly enhance the property's marketability and long-term value; future buyers might factor in the cost of an upgrade to a B-rating when valuing properties in this bracket, suggesting a smart investment opportunity for an incoming owner.
Amenities
Regional Connectivity: Ballyvary's location means reliance on regional transport; the nearest significant train station is likely Castlebar (approx. 10km), serving intercity routes.
Local Services: Key local amenities include primary schools like Straide National School and secondary options in nearby Castlebar, along with local shops and healthcare facilities within a 5-10km radius.
Limited Direct Public Transport: While local bus services may exist, there are no Luas or DART stops serving Ballyvary directly, indicating a strong reliance on private transport for wider connectivity.
Hypothesis: The development of improved public transport links, such as an enhanced bus service connecting Ballyvary directly to Castlebar train station, could significantly boost property values by improving commuter convenience and access to regional employment hubs.
