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 Upgrade Potential: An F BER rating suggests significant room for improvement; upgrading to a C2 rating could cost an estimated €15,000-€20,000, potentially increasing property value by €25,000-€30,000.
Space Efficiency: At 57.0m², this 2-bedroom bungalow offers a compact living space, which is typical for its type but might be considered small if local demand favors larger properties.
Value Optimization Opportunity: Investing in energy efficiency upgrades from the F BER rating could reduce annual energy costs from an estimated €2,500-€3,000 to €1,200-€1,600 for a C2-rated property, presenting a tangible cost saving for future owners.
Hypothesis: Given the F BER rating, a strategic investment in insulation, heating system upgrades, and potential window replacements totaling €20,000 could significantly improve the property's appeal and marketability, potentially closing the gap with its asking price.
Amenities
Limited Public Transport: Roundstone is a rural location with no direct bus routes, train stations, or Luas/DART stops serving the immediate vicinity, requiring travel to larger towns for public transport.
Local Services Scarce: Specific educational facilities, major healthcare providers, and large shopping centers are not within close proximity to Funachree, Roundstone, necessitating travel for these essential amenities.
Rural Lifestyle Focus: The area offers natural beauty with access to coastal walks and scenic routes, appealing to those seeking a quiet, rural lifestyle away from urban conveniences.
Hypothesis: The property's location in Roundstone, Co. Galway, an area known for its natural amenities rather than urban connectivity, suggests that its primary value appeal will be to lifestyle buyers prioritizing tranquility over commuter convenience, with demand likely being niche.
