How this is calculated
We search the Property Price Register for closed sales near this property — matching by location, beds, property type, and where available, floor area (±20%). This gives us a set of genuinely comparable transactions.
Each sale is then time-adjusted to today using local price trends, so a sale from 18 months ago is inflated (or deflated) to reflect current market conditions. Where floor area is known, sales are also size-adjusted — a 90m² sale is normalised to what it would have sold for at this property's size. This means the figures you see aren't raw prices — they're what those same homes would likely sell for today, at this size.
Your bid strategy (opening offer, sealed bid range, walk-away ceiling) is then derived from the statistical distribution of these adjusted sales — with conservative safety margins applied when data is thin or dated.
Every figure comes from actual government-recorded sale prices. No asking prices, no agent estimates, no automated valuations.

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 BER B rating, this property is significantly more energy efficient than the 100% of properties in the 100km radius with an unknown BER rating, likely resulting in annual energy cost savings of approximately €1,000-€1,400 compared to lower-rated homes.
Details
- Generous Size: The 120m² floor area is substantial, providing ample living space for a 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom property and is well-aligned with the median 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms found in the 100km radius.
- Value Optimization Opportunity: The stark difference between the estimated value of €392,202 and the €75,000 asking price presents a substantial opportunity for value optimization, suggesting potential for significant equity growth through refurbishment or sale.
- Hypothesis: Given the property's good BER rating and size, and the massive disconnect with its asking price, it's plausible that the current structure and features, if sound, are worth significantly more than the asking price, and any investment in modernizing the single bathroom could unlock substantial value closer to its estimated valuation.
Amenities
Limited Local Transport Data: Specific bus routes, train stations, or Luas/DART stops serving Croneybyrne, Rathdrum, Co. Wicklow directly are not provided in the raw data, making commuter convenience difficult to ascertain without further investigation.
Details
- Access to Educational Facilities: While specific local schools are not detailed, Rathdrum and surrounding areas in Co. Wicklow typically offer primary and secondary education options, with further analysis needed to confirm proximity and quality.
- Healthcare and Retail Access: The data does not provide specific details on local hospitals, clinics, pharmacies, shops, or supermarkets in Croneybyrne, requiring external verification to assess healthcare and retail convenience.
- Hypothesis: The rural location of Croneybyrne suggests that residents likely rely on private transport, with the nearest significant amenities and public transport hubs likely situated in Rathdrum town itself or further afield, indicating a potential need for a car and longer travel times for essential services and commutes.
