Bid Model Unavailable
Not enough closed transaction data for this property.
We found 2 comparable transactions within 5.0km over the past 36 months. A minimum of 3 is required to derive a statistically reliable bid strategy. Purchasing a report is not available for this property.
This can happen for properties in lower-turnover areas or very specific property types. Check back as new transactions register on the Property Price Register, or search for a nearby comparable property.
Price Distribution Analysis
2 verified closed sales within 5.0km · 36 months. Filters broadened to increase sample size.

This chart shows where the asking price sits versus recent verified closed sales. It does not show your bid strategy.Same baseline as Market Position.
Financial Exposure · 20% Above Median

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 Improvement Opportunity: Upgrading the E1 BER rating to a C1 could cost approximately €10,000-€15,000 and potentially increase the property's value by €18,000-€25,000, offering a solid return on investment.
Details
- Size vs. Bathrooms: With a size of 96.0m² and 2 bathrooms for only 1 bedroom, the bathroom provision is unusually high, which may not align with typical buyer expectations for a 1-bedroom property.
- Energy Cost Burden: An E1 BER rating suggests annual energy costs could be in the range of €1,600-€2,000, significantly higher than a C-rated property of similar size (€900-€1,300).
- Hypothesis: The high ratio of bathrooms to bedrooms (2:1) for this 1-bedroom property suggests a potential unique design or focus, which may appeal to a niche market but could also deter broader buyer interest accustomed to a more conventional bedroom-to-bathroom ratio, impacting its resale value and marketability.
Amenities
Limited Public Transport: Information on specific bus routes, train stations, or Luas/DART stops serving Caher, Kilcrohane, Ballyroon is not available in the provided data, indicating potential reliance on private transport.
Details
- Rural Location Amenities: The property's location in Co. Cork, outside of major urban centers, suggests that specific local schools, shops, and healthcare facilities would require detailed local knowledge, which is not provided.
- Connectivity Uncertainty: Without specific details on nearby amenities like schools (e.g., Scoil Naomh Eoin), shops (e.g., Cronin's Centra), or healthcare (e.g., Bantry General Hospital), assessing walkability and family convenience is challenging.
- Hypothesis: The lack of readily available data on specific local transport routes and amenities for this rural Co. Cork address suggests that its appeal may be primarily for those seeking a secluded lifestyle, where access to services is less critical than natural surroundings, and buyers would need to conduct thorough on-site investigations.
