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: With a poor BER G rating, the property faces estimated annual energy costs of €2,800-€3,800; however, upgrading to a B rating could cost €15,000-€25,000 and potentially increase the property value by €30,000-€40,000.
Re-configuration Potential: At 120m², this property is exceptionally large for a 1-bedroom home, presenting a significant opportunity for re-configuration to 2 or 3 bedrooms, aligning it more closely with the typical 3-bedroom properties in the 10km radius.
Investment for Value: The property's current asking price of €195,000 is €184,177 below its estimated value of €379,177, suggesting it requires significant investment to unlock its full market potential and match local property standards.
Hypothesis: The property's current layout as a 1-bedroom home despite its substantial 120m² size indicates a likely non-traditional setup or a need for complete internal renovation; optimising its internal configuration to at least 3 bedrooms, combined with strategic BER improvements, could more than double its current market appeal and value.
Amenities
Car-Dependent Location: Situated in a rural area, transport connectivity for Kilquane is largely car-dependent, with the nearest significant public transport hub being Kent Station in Cork City approximately 20-25km away.
Local Facilities Access: Essential facilities include Knockraha National School (local) and local pharmacies in nearby Glanmire, while comprehensive healthcare services are primarily available at Cork University Hospital, approximately 20-25km away in Cork City.
Rural Lifestyle & Shopping: Local amenities include The Huntsman Bar in Knockraha village, with larger shopping and retail options like SuperValu and Mahon Point Shopping Centre requiring car travel to Glanmire or Cork City.
Hypothesis: Given its rural Cork location, the property's primary appeal lies in its tranquil countryside setting and potential for a quiet family life, appealing to buyers prioritising space and natural surroundings over immediate access to comprehensive urban amenities and extensive public transport networks.
