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 Opportunity: Upgrading the D2 BER rating to a B2 could cost an estimated €8,000-€12,000 but is likely to increase the property's value by €15,000-€20,000, representing a strong return on investment.
Higher Running Costs: With a D2 BER rating, annual energy costs for a 120m² property are estimated to be in the range of €1,800-€2,200, significantly higher than the €800-€1,200 for similar-sized properties with a B-rated BER.
Spacious Configuration: The property offers a generous 120m² of living space with 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, providing ample room and configuration options for a larger family or those seeking additional flexible space.
Hypothesis: The significant gap between the current D2 BER and a more desirable B2 rating presents a clear opportunity for value enhancement; investing in energy efficiency upgrades could not only reduce ongoing costs but also substantially improve the property's marketability and sale price, especially in a market where energy performance is increasingly scrutinized.
Amenities
Limited Direct Transport: As the property is located in Loughill, Co. Limerick, specific Dublin bus routes, Luas stops, or DART stations are not directly referenced as serving this immediate rural area, likely requiring significant travel to access major public transport hubs.
Local Services Assessment: While specific amenities for Carrowbane More, Loughill are not detailed in the provided data, a rural location typically implies reliance on nearby towns for primary shopping (e.g., supermarkets) and essential services, with educational facilities likely comprising local primary and secondary schools.
Potential for Local Engagement: Given the rural setting, lifestyle amenities may be community-focused, potentially including local pubs, community centres, and natural recreational spaces like walking trails or parks, fostering a close-knit environment.
Hypothesis: The property's rural location in Loughill, Co. Limerick, suggests a strong reliance on private transport and proximity to larger towns like Rathkeale or Newcastle West for comprehensive amenities, and connectivity to major urban centres like Limerick City would likely involve limited public transport options, impacting commute times and accessibility for non-drivers.
