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 C1 Advantage: The C1 BER rating suggests moderate energy efficiency, likely resulting in annual energy costs of approximately €1,500-€2,000, offering some savings compared to lower-rated properties.
Details
- Spacious Living: With 170m² of living space and 5 bedrooms, this property offers ample room, which is significantly larger than the median of 3 bedrooms within 100km, catering well to larger families or those seeking extensive living areas.
- Upgrade Opportunity: A BER upgrade from C1 to B2 could cost an estimated €8,000-€12,000 and potentially increase the property's value by €15,000-€20,000, representing a sound investment for long-term energy savings and market appeal.
- Hypothesis: While the C1 BER is adequate, the significant size of the property (170m²) means that even small improvements in energy efficiency could yield substantial annual savings. The investment in upgrading to a B-rated BER would not only reduce running costs but also enhance the property's appeal in a market that is increasingly valuing sustainability, potentially narrowing the gap with its current asking price.
Amenities
Limited Transport Links: The absence of specific local bus route numbers, train stations, or Luas/DART stops within the provided data for Kilclooney Beg indicates a reliance on private transport for connectivity.
Details
- Local Amenities Sparse: Specific details on schools, healthcare facilities, shopping centres, or family services within close proximity to Kilclooney Beg are not provided, suggesting limited readily available amenities.
- Remote Coastal Setting: The location in Portnoo, Co. Donegal, suggests a rural coastal setting, likely offering natural beauty but with fewer immediate conveniences and services compared to more developed areas.
- Hypothesis: Given the lack of specific data on public transport and services, it's probable that the primary appeal of Kilclooney Beg lies in its remote coastal setting and natural amenities, such as beaches and scenic views, which would attract a niche buyer prioritizing tranquility over urban convenience and necessitating greater reliance on driving for accessing essential services.
