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
Energy Efficiency Advantage: With a C2 BER rating, this 158m² bungalow is estimated to have annual energy costs between €1,200-€1,600, potentially saving €200-€1,000 annually compared to typical D-rated properties of similar size (€1,800-€2,200).
Details
- Generous Proportions: At 158m² with 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, this 'Very Large' bungalow offers substantial living space, exceeding the median 2.0 bathrooms for properties sold within a 50km radius, enhancing comfort and market appeal.
- Investment Potential: While already efficient at C2, minor strategic upgrades could further improve the BER, potentially reducing long-term running costs and increasing the property's market value, aligning with growing buyer preference for energy-efficient homes.
- Hypothesis: Given that BER data for comparable sold properties within 100km is 100% unknown, the clear and relatively good C2 BER of this property will likely command an unspoken premium, as it offers buyers transparency and assured energy performance in a market where such information is often unavailable for sold homes.
Amenities
Essential Private Transport: Located in rural Lauragh Upper, primary connectivity relies on private car, as major urban public transport options like Luas, DART, or specific city bus routes are not available in this area of Co. Kerry.
Details
- Kenmare Town Access: Daily amenities are concentrated in Kenmare town, requiring an approximate 20-30 minute drive for access to essential services such as SuperValu, local GP clinics, pharmacies, and schools including Kenmare Community School.
- Idyllic Lifestyle & Outdoor Pursuits: The area offers exceptional access to natural lifestyle amenities, featuring the scenic Ring of Kerry drive, numerous local walking trails for exploration, and the Kenmare Golf Club for leisure and recreation.
- Hypothesis: The property's secluded, rural setting, while lacking immediate urban conveniences and public transport, uniquely caters to a specific buyer segment that prioritizes unparalleled natural beauty, tranquility, and outdoor activities over urban accessibility, potentially attracting those seeking a serene escape.
