Limited recent transaction volume reduces trend precision. Strategy remains anchored to closed-sale distribution.
PPR closed sales · size & time adjusted · no asking prices used
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 Rating Impact: The C3 BER rating suggests moderate energy efficiency, meaning annual energy costs could be around €1,500-€1,800, which is higher than A or B rated properties in the area.
Size Anomaly: With 7 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms across 120m², the property is exceptionally configured, leading to a lower price per square meter (€5,416.87) compared to the 1km median of €3,098.34, indicating a potential mismatch in typical buyer needs for the immediate area.
Upgrade Opportunity: Upgrading the C3 BER to a B2 rating could cost approximately €8,000-€12,000, potentially increasing the property's market value by €15,000-€20,000 and reducing annual energy costs.
Hypothesis: The unusual configuration of 7 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms in 120m² suggests this property may have been converted or built for a specific purpose, such as a guesthouse or multi-generational living, which could explain its deviation from typical residential sales metrics and require a niche buyer.
Amenities
Transport Connectivity: Arklow is served by Bus Éireann routes, with key services like the 133 connecting to Dublin, and is near Arklow train station offering rail services to Dublin.
Local Facilities: The area offers access to amenities such as Bridgewater Shopping Centre, a variety of local shops, St. Mary's College, and Arklow General Hospital.
Green Spaces: Residents can enjoy coastal walks along Arklow Beach and utilise local parks such as Bridgewater Park.
Hypothesis: While Arklow provides essential amenities and transport links, the lack of immediate proximity to high-frequency services like the Luas or DART in this specific Ferrybank location might limit its appeal to a broader Dublin commuter base, suggesting a focus on local Arklow residents or those prioritizing coastal living over city proximity.
