How this is calculated
We search the Property Price Register for closed sales near this property — matching by location, beds, property type, and where available, floor area (±20%). This gives us a set of genuinely comparable transactions.
Each sale is then time-adjusted to today using local price trends, so a sale from 18 months ago is inflated (or deflated) to reflect current market conditions. Where floor area is known, sales are also size-adjusted — a 90m² sale is normalised to what it would have sold for at this property's size. This means the figures you see aren't raw prices — they're what those same homes would likely sell for today, at this size.
Your bid strategy (opening offer, sealed bid range, walk-away ceiling) is then derived from the statistical distribution of these adjusted sales — with conservative safety margins applied when data is thin or dated.
Every figure comes from actual government-recorded sale prices. No asking prices, no agent estimates, no automated valuations.

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 Opportunity: Upgrading the E2 BER rating to a C2 could cost an estimated €5,000 - €8,000 and potentially increase property value by €8,000 - €12,000, making it a worthwhile investment.
Details
- Smaller Footprint: The property's 53m² size is significantly smaller than the median of 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms found in sales within 10km, suggesting a mismatch with typical buyer preferences in the area.
- Costly Improvements: Bringing this E2 rated property up to a B2 standard (an increase of 3 BER categories) would likely involve insulation upgrades, new heating systems, and window replacements, with estimated costs ranging from €10,000 to €15,000, while potentially adding €15,000 to €20,000 to its value.
- Hypothesis: The low BER rating and compact size, combined with an E2 rating that typically incurs annual energy costs of approximately €1,800-€2,200 for a property of this size, suggest that the property's current market appeal is limited by its energy inefficiency and lack of space, requiring significant investment to align with broader market expectations.
Amenities
Transport Links: This property is located outside Dublin, meaning direct access to Luas, DART, or specific Dublin Bus routes is unlikely; travel to Wexford Town, the nearest significant hub, would likely require private transport or local bus services such as Bus Éireann routes serving the region, which may not have direct stops within immediate walking distance.
Details
- Local Amenities: Castlebridge village offers essential local amenities including supermarkets like Scanlon's Centra, and educational facilities such as Castlebridge National School. Healthcare access would typically involve travel to Wexford General Hospital, approximately 7km away.
- Rural Lifestyle: The property's location in Kilmisten, Castlebridge, offers a more rural lifestyle, potentially with access to local walking routes and proximity to Wexford Town's amenities, but lacks the immediate walkability and extensive public transport options found in urban or suburban settings.
- Hypothesis: The property's location in Castlebridge, Co. Wexford, prioritizes a more rural setting over urban convenience, suggesting that its value proposition lies in its peaceful environment and potential for accessing natural amenities like Curracloe Beach (approx. 7km away) rather than proximity to high-frequency public transport or a wide array of specialized retail and entertainment venues.
