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 Energy Costs: With a C3 BER rating, annual energy costs are estimated to be €1,600-€2,000, compared to potentially €900-€1,300 for an A-rated property of similar size, representing an annual saving opportunity of €700-€1,000.
Upgrade Potential: Improving the BER from C3 to B2 could cost approximately €7,000-€10,000, potentially increasing the property's value by €12,000-€15,000, representing a sound investment for long-term energy efficiency and market appeal.
Generous Accommodation: The property's 228m² size with 6 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms offers significant space, which is a strong positive factor in the market, especially for larger families or those seeking home office solutions.
Hypothesis: Given the C3 BER rating and the property's substantial size, a strategic focus on insulation upgrades and efficient heating systems could differentiate this property, potentially commanding a 5-8% premium over similarly sized C-rated homes in the local area if marketed effectively.
