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 Upgrade Potential: Upgrading the D1 BER rating to a B2 could cost an estimated €8,000-€12,000, potentially increasing the property's value by €15,000-€20,000 based on typical market uplift for improved energy efficiency.
Generous Space Allocation: With 324m² of living space and 6 bedrooms, this property offers an average of 54m² per bedroom, which is significantly larger than the median of 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms typically found within a 100km radius.
Value Optimization Opportunity: While currently D1, strategic energy efficiency upgrades could enhance marketability and long-term value, with an estimated annual energy cost of €1,800-€2,200 compared to €800-€1,200 for a B-rated property of similar size.
Hypothesis: The substantial size of Holly Lodge (324m²) suggests it was built in an era where larger homes were standard, but its D1 BER rating indicates a significant opportunity to invest in energy efficiency upgrades, potentially transforming it into a highly desirable family residence if the cost-benefit of such improvements aligns with local buyer preferences for older, larger homes.
Amenities
Limited Public Transport: The property's rural location in Newbawn, Co. Wexford, means it is not directly served by any specific bus routes mentioned (e.g., Dublin Bus routes 25, 66, 67), or train stations, Luas, or DART stops.
Local Services Reliance: Access to schools like St. Mary's Primary School and St. Patrick's Secondary School, along with healthcare facilities and shopping centers, would likely require travel by car, as no specific local amenities within walking distance are provided in the data.
Commuter Challenges: The lack of direct public transport links means commuting to major employment hubs like Dublin would be time-consuming and likely require multiple transfers, impacting the property's appeal for daily commuters.
Hypothesis: The property's location in Newbawn, Co. Wexford, suggests a strong reliance on private transport, with limited public service infrastructure impacting its value proposition for non-local buyers or those seeking convenient access to urban centers, which could suppress its market potential compared to properties closer to established transport networks.
