Market Position
Limited Transaction Data
At €310,000, we cannot reliably position this property — only 1 comparable closed sale was found within 1.5km. More local transactions are needed before the data can support a market position estimate.
Sources: PPR, SEAI, OPW, planning records.
Bid Model Unavailable
Not enough closed transaction data for this property.
We found 1 comparable transaction within 1.5km over the past 18 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.

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
Subpar Energy Efficiency: The G BER rating indicates very poor energy performance, with estimated annual heating costs likely exceeding €2,500-€3,500 compared to €1,000-€1,500 for a C-rated property of similar size.
Significant Upgrade Costs: Achieving a B2 BER rating from the current G would likely cost between €15,000 - €20,000 in insulation, heating system, and window upgrades, but could add €25,000 - €35,000 in market value.
Compact Configuration: With only 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom for 101m², this property is unusually configured for its size, potentially limiting its appeal to the typical family market and impacting its saleability compared to properties with 2-3 bedrooms.
Hypothesis: The substantial investment required to upgrade the BER rating from G to B2, combined with the atypical bedroom count for its size, suggests that this property's value will remain capped unless a significant renovation addresses both its energy inefficiency and its spatial configuration.
Amenities
Limited Transport Links: Ballydehob is not directly served by specific bus routes like Dublin Bus numbers or train stations, and is outside the Luas/DART network, requiring significant reliance on private transport.
Local Amenities Sparse: Specific details on schools, healthcare, and retail are not provided for Ballydehob, suggesting a potential lack of immediate access to essential services and lifestyle amenities typically found in more urbanised areas.
Low Walkability: Given its designation as 'Outside Dublin' and the likely rural nature of Ballydehob, walkability to key services and amenities is presumed to be low, necessitating car travel for most daily needs.
Hypothesis: The lack of direct public transport options and specific named amenities in the provided data for Ballydehob suggests it is a more isolated location, where property value is driven more by intrinsic property characteristics and the immediate rural appeal rather than connectivity and convenience.
