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
Significant BER Upgrade Opportunity: The C3 BER rating suggests potential for significant savings. Upgrading to a B2 rating could cost approximately €8,000-€12,000 but potentially increase the property's value by €15,000-€20,000 and reduce annual energy costs by €1,000-€1,400 compared to a D-rated property.
Details
- Generous Size for Area: With a size of 142m², this 4-bedroom detached property offers ample living space, which is favourable given the median 3-bedroom configuration and 1 bathroom noted in the 100km market data.
- Value Optimization Potential: Investing in energy efficiency upgrades could significantly enhance the property's appeal and long-term value, particularly given the C3 BER rating and the increasing importance of sustainability in the market.
- Hypothesis: While the property offers a good size and configuration, its C3 BER rating presents a significant opportunity for value enhancement through targeted energy upgrades, potentially unlocking substantial return on investment and increasing its market competitiveness.
Amenities
Limited Local Transport Connectivity: The absence of specific bus routes, train stations, or Luas stops mentioned in the provided data for this rural location suggests limited public transport options, likely requiring reliance on private vehicles.
Details
- Basic Local Services: Information on specific schools, healthcare facilities, or shopping centres in the immediate Kylebrack area is not provided, indicating a need for travel to larger towns like Loughrea for comprehensive amenities.
- Rural Lifestyle Focus: The property's location in Drim, Kylebrack, suggests a rural setting, which often appeals to those seeking tranquility and space, but may come with trade-offs in terms of immediate access to a wide array of amenities.
- Hypothesis: The rural setting of Kylebrack, while offering a peaceful environment, implies that any future development focusing on improving local public transport infrastructure or bringing essential services closer could significantly boost property values in the area.
