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.

- —All figures from registered closed sales only — no asking prices, no agent estimates
Local Market Notes
Property Quality
BER Transparency Gap: The property's unknown BER rating (SI_) mirrors a market-wide trend, as 100% of properties sold in the 5km radius over the last 180 days also have unknown BERs, highlighting a prevalent lack of energy efficiency disclosure.
Strategic Energy Upgrade Opportunity: Given the widespread unknown BERs, a strategic investment in a BER assessment and potential upgrade from a D to a B2 rating could cost approximately €8,000-€12,000, potentially adding €15,000-€20,000 to the property's value and significantly reducing future energy bills.
Generous Space Allocation: At 125m² with 2 bedrooms, this detached property offers a spacious layout per bedroom, exceeding the typical 3-bedroom configuration found in the median for properties sold within a 5km radius, appealing to buyers seeking larger individual living areas.
Hypothesis: The prevailing unknown BER ratings in the local market present a unique competitive advantage for properties that undertake and disclose energy upgrades, as buyers seeking long-term cost savings and environmental benefits will likely assign a premium to transparently energy-efficient homes.
Amenities
Coastal Connectivity: While lacking urban rail, Fenit is served by Local Link bus routes, such as Route 279 connecting Fenit to Tralee, where the nearest train station, Tralee Mac Coille, provides wider regional transport links (approximately 12-15km away).
Premier Lifestyle Access: Situated at Fenit Pier, the property boasts direct access to significant lifestyle amenities including Fenit Marina, Fenit Beach, and the scenic Fenit Lighthouse Walk, with popular local dining options like Mike The Pies and The Tankard enriching the community experience.
Local & Regional Facilities: Fenit National School offers immediate primary education, while comprehensive healthcare is available at University Hospital Kerry in Tralee, complemented by extensive shopping and retail options at Manor West Retail Park, ensuring most needs are met within a short drive.
Hypothesis: The property's unparalleled access to unique coastal lifestyle amenities and a strong local community in Fenit, despite its distance from major urban public transport networks, positions it to attract a specific buyer demographic that values quality of life, outdoor pursuits, and tranquil living over traditional commuter convenience, thereby supporting a premium valuation.
