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
BER Upgrade Potential: Improving the D1 BER rating to a B2 could cost approximately €8,000-€12,000 and potentially increase the property's value by €15,000-€20,000, representing a positive return on investment.
Spacious Accommodation: With 178m² across 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, this bungalow offers ample living space, which is a significant draw for larger families or those seeking generous room sizes.
Value Optimization: To maximize value, focusing on energy efficiency upgrades and modernizing the interior finishes would be key, as indicated by the D1 BER and the general €15,000-€20,000 value uplift for a B2 rating.
Hypothesis: The current D1 BER rating suggests that while the property is spacious, annual energy costs are likely to be €1,800-€2,200 for a property of this size; strategic upgrades to a B2 rating could reduce these costs by €1,000-€1,400 annually and improve market appeal.
Amenities
Transport Links: While specific routes are not provided, Wicklow Town generally benefits from Irish Rail services at Wicklow Station, providing commuter links to Dublin, and Bus Éireann routes connect to surrounding areas and Dublin City.
Local Services: The property is situated in Wicklow Town, offering access to amenities such as St. Kevin's National School, Wicklow Educate Together National School, a range of local shops, pharmacies, and healthcare facilities including the Beacon Hospital which is a drive away.
Green Spaces: Proximity to the coast and the Wicklow Mountains National Park offers significant opportunities for outdoor recreation and lifestyle amenities.
Hypothesis: Given Wicklow Town's status as a regional hub with existing infrastructure, investment in improved public transport frequency or direct express services to Dublin could significantly enhance the commuter appeal and thus the property's long-term value, especially for its size and potential.
