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 B Rating Advantage: The property's 'B' BER rating offers a good starting point for energy efficiency, placing it above the 100km radius median of 100% unknown BER ratings.
Details
- Potential for Value Enhancement: While a 'B' rating is good, potential buyers could explore upgrades to an 'A' rating. Based on national averages, moving from a 'B' to an 'A' rated BER can reduce annual energy costs by an estimated €400-€800 for a property of this size, demonstrating a clear return on investment.
- Site Valuation Opportunity: With an estimated value of €257,637.52 and an asking price of €50,000, this site likely presents a significant opportunity for development, assuming planning permission is achievable. This disconnect suggests the current valuation is based on raw land value rather than potential build value.
- Hypothesis: The discrepancy between the estimated value and the asking price, combined with the 'B' BER rating, suggests that the land itself is being valued primarily. If planning permission can be secured for a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom property, the construction cost of a new build with an equivalent or better BER rating, alongside the land acquisition cost, could still comfortably fall within the estimated value range, making it a viable development prospect.
Amenities
Limited Local Transport: Barnaboy, Turloughmore, Co. Galway is not directly serviced by major public transport routes like Dublin Bus, Luas, or DART; the nearest significant public transport hubs would require travel to Galway City.
Details
- Proximity to Galway City: While not a direct amenity, its location outside Dublin means potential access to Galway City's amenities including University Hospital Galway, GMIT (Galway-Mayo Institute of Technology), and a wide array of retail and dining options. Galway City is approximately a 20-30 minute drive.
- Local Infrastructure Gap: The area lacks specific named amenities such as primary/secondary schools, pharmacies, or major shopping centres within a close radius, indicating that residents would rely on nearby towns like Claregalway or Headford, or Galway City for essential services.
- Hypothesis: The property's location in Turloughmore, while offering a rural setting, presents a clear reliance on car ownership for accessing amenities. Future infrastructure development in the wider Galway region, such as improved public transport links or the development of local community hubs, could significantly increase the desirability and value of properties in this area.
