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 Rating Advantage: The BER rating of 'B' offers an advantage, with estimated annual energy costs potentially €1,000-€1,400 lower than comparable D-rated properties of similar size.
Configuration Mismatch: The property is listed as a 'Site' but also shows 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, which is a significant discrepancy and suggests this might be a plot with planning for a dwelling or a misunderstanding in data input.
Value Optimization Potential: If this is indeed a site, substantial value can be unlocked by developing a property that meets local demand, potentially requiring an investment of €150,000-€250,000 for a modern, B-rated dwelling of a reasonable size.
Hypothesis: The unusual data pairing of 'Site' with specific bedroom and bathroom counts implies that the 'site' designation may be due to a recent planning permission for a dwelling, or it is a de-facto plot where a dwelling exists but is not properly registered, creating an opportunity for a buyer who can clarify its status.
Amenities
Limited Public Transport: Bunacurry, Achill is not served by Luas, DART, or train stations; the nearest public transport would likely be local bus services, if any, making private transport essential.
Local Services Accessibility: Access to amenities like schools (e.g., Scoil Náisiúnta an Chaisleáin Nua), healthcare (e.g., Belmullet District Hospital, approximately 30km away), and significant retail outlets requires travel outside of Bunacurry.
Walkability and Green Space: While Achill Island offers natural beauty and walking routes, specific pedestrian infrastructure within Bunacurry is likely minimal, with immediate access to parks or designated walking paths being limited to the natural landscape.
Hypothesis: The property's isolation in Bunacurry, Achill, Co. Mayo, implies a strong reliance on private transport for accessing essential services, and its appeal will be primarily to those seeking a remote lifestyle rather than convenience-driven buyers.
