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 B Advantage: The property's B BER rating offers a significant advantage, projecting annual energy cost savings of €1,000-€1,400 compared to a D-rated property of similar size, equating to a €10,000-€14,000 saving over a decade.
Details
- Compact Site Size: At 4.0m², this site is extremely small for a property described as 'C. 4.7 Acres', suggesting a potential data discrepancy or a misinterpretation of 'size' and 'acreage', which needs clarification for accurate valuation.
- Potential for Enhancement: While the site itself offers development potential, the current 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms suggest a pre-existing structure of limited size, indicating that significant investment would be required to maximize the value of the 4.7 acres.
- Hypothesis: The discrepancy between the listed size of 4.0m² and the acreage (4.7 Acres) strongly suggests that the property is primarily land with a potential existing structure, implying that the €367,309 valuation is likely for the land value and development potential rather than the current dwelling, which would require a detailed feasibility study to justify.
Amenities
Limited Local Connectivity: Hacketstown is a rural village and is not directly served by any bus routes, train stations (like Carlow Station, approx. 25km away), or Luas/DART lines, necessitating reliance on private transport for most amenities.
Details
- Basic Local Services: Within Hacketstown, amenities are limited to essential services; for broader retail, healthcare, and educational options, residents would typically need to travel to larger towns such as Tullow (approx. 15km) or Carlow town (approx. 25km).
- Rural Lifestyle Focus: The primary lifestyle appeal of Hacketstown lies in its rural setting, offering proximity to natural landscapes and outdoor activities rather than urban conveniences, with local pubs and community centres forming the core of social life.
- Hypothesis: The significant distance to major transport hubs and urban centres suggests that the value proposition of this property hinges heavily on its land and rural lifestyle appeal, with any future development requiring substantial investment in infrastructure or a strong demand for a secluded living experience, as current public transport and amenity access is severely restricted.
