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 this E2 BER property to a B2 rating could cost between €10,000-€15,000, potentially adding €15,000-€25,000 to the property's value.
Details
- Energy Cost Savings: With an E2 BER, annual energy costs are estimated at €2,000-€2,500, significantly higher compared to €800-€1,200 for B-rated properties of similar size, representing potential annual savings of €800-€1,700 post-upgrade.
- Compact Configuration: At 59m², this 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom property is notably smaller than the median 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom homes typically found in the 50km radius, which sell for a median of €270,000.
- Hypothesis: The compact 59m² size and E2 BER might attract investors or first-time buyers seeking an affordable entry point in Donegal, as the renovation costs and smaller footprint allow for a lower total investment compared to the larger, more expensive median properties in the surrounding areas.
Amenities
Local Transport Access: The property benefits from local bus connectivity via Bus Éireann's Local Link Donegal, including route 293 (Killybegs - Kilcar - Glencolmcille), providing essential regional access.
Details
- Educational Proximity: Family buyers will appreciate the proximity to Kilcar National School and Coláiste na Carraige (secondary school) in nearby Carrick, supporting local educational needs.
- Essential Local Services: Daily needs are met with a Kilcar Centra supermarket, Kilcar Pharmacy, and the Kilcar Community Centre all within the village, enhancing local convenience and walkability.
- Hypothesis: The appeal of this property is strongly tied to its tranquil coastal village setting, proximity to natural attractions like the Slieve League Cliffs, and essential local amenities, likely drawing buyers seeking a rural lifestyle or a holiday home rather than those dependent on extensive public transport networks.
