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
BER Improvement Potential: The D1 BER rating indicates an opportunity for value enhancement; upgrading to a B2 rating would likely cost €8,000-€12,000 and could increase property value by €15,000-€20,000, with estimated annual energy savings of €1,000-€1,400 compared to its current rating.
Details
- Efficient Size: At 82sqm, the apartment is slightly larger than the average property size of 80.46sqm within a 1km radius over the past 180 days, offering good space efficiency for a two-bedroom unit.
- Configuration Mismatch: The property's 1 bathroom configuration is lower than the median of 2 bathrooms within a 1km radius over the past 180 days, potentially impacting its appeal to a broader buyer pool and its long-term resale value.
- Hypothesis: The prevalence of 2-bedroom apartments with 1 bathroom and a D1 BER rating within a 1km radius, coupled with a strong selling market, suggests that while this property presents a value opportunity, future developments or renovations focusing on increasing bathroom count and improving BER would significantly enhance its competitive edge and capital growth.
Amenities
Transport Hub Access: The property is well-connected, with Dublin Bus routes 25, 66, and 67 serving the area, and the Luas Red Line at the nearest stop (e.g., Park West and Cherry Orchard) being approximately a 20-minute walk or short bus ride away.
Details
- Local Education & Healthcare: The area benefits from excellent educational facilities like St. Mary's College and Castleknock Community College, and is within proximity to Connolly Hospital Blanchardstown for healthcare needs.
- Retail & Recreation: Residents have convenient access to The Village at Farmleigh for local shops and cafes, and the expansive Phoenix Park is within a short drive, offering ample recreational space.
- Hypothesis: The combination of good bus connectivity, proximity to major educational institutions, and access to large green spaces like Phoenix Park suggests that Castleknock is a highly desirable location for families and professionals seeking a balance between suburban tranquility and urban accessibility, potentially driving sustained demand and value appreciation in Fernleigh Close.
