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
Significant BER Upgrade Potential: With a C1 BER rating, upgrading to a B2 could cost approximately €8,000-€12,000 but potentially increase property value by €15,000-€20,000.
Details
- High Annual Energy Cost Savings: A C1 BER rating means annual energy costs are likely in the range of €1,800-€2,200, whereas a B-rated property of similar size could see savings of €1,000-€1,400 annually.
- Spacious Configuration: The property boasts a substantial 463m² size with 5 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms, far exceeding the median of 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms found within a 100km radius, offering significant space for its occupants.
- Hypothesis: The considerable difference between the property's size (463m²) and the typical 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom standard in the surrounding 100km radius, coupled with its C1 BER, suggests that while offering ample space, its energy efficiency is a key area for improvement to maximize its long-term value and market appeal.
Amenities
Limited Public Transport Connectivity: As the property is located in Ballyconneely, Clifden, Co. Galway, H71XK11, it is situated in a rural area with no specific bus routes, train stations, Luas, or DART stations serving it directly. The nearest public transport would likely involve significant travel.
Details
- Rural Lifestyle Amenities: The area is characterized by natural landscapes, with nearby attractions likely including Connemara National Park and the coastal scenery of Roundstone and Clifden town, offering a strong focus on outdoor activities and natural beauty rather than urban conveniences.
- Healthcare Access: Access to major healthcare facilities will require travel to larger towns; the nearest significant hospital is likely to be University Hospital Galway, which is a considerable distance away, with local pharmacies and clinics being the primary immediate healthcare resources.
- Hypothesis: The remote location of Ballyconneely, while offering significant natural amenity value, inherently limits its appeal for buyers prioritizing urban connectivity and immediate access to a wide range of services, suggesting that its value proposition is heavily weighted towards a secluded, nature-focused lifestyle.
