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 Improvement Opportunity: Upgrading the E2 BER rating to a C1 could cost approximately €8,000 - €12,000, potentially increasing the property's value by €15,000 - €20,000.
Estimated Energy Costs: Current annual energy costs for an E2 rated property of this size are estimated at €1,800 - €2,200, significantly higher than the €800 - €1,200 for a B-rated property.
Compact Configuration: A 120m² footprint with 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom is a modest size, which might be a limitation in areas with larger average property sizes.
Hypothesis: The E2 BER rating, while a significant detractor, presents a clear investment opportunity; targeted insulation and heating upgrades could not only yield substantial annual savings of €1,000-€1,400 but also significantly boost resale value in a market where energy efficiency is becoming increasingly critical.
Amenities
Limited Public Transport: Based on the location in Glenties, Ardara, Co. Donegal, there are no direct Luas, DART, or mainline train stations. Bus Eireann routes would be the primary public transport, but specific route numbers for this precise rural location are not provided in the raw data.
Rural Service Access: Glenties and Ardara themselves offer essential services, likely including local shops (e.g., Supervalu in both towns), primary schools (e.g., Scoil Naomh Mhuire in Glenties), and local health services, but detailed facility names and distances are not in the provided data.
Community-Centroic Living: The rural setting implies a focus on local community amenities rather than large retail centers or multiple specialized lifestyle facilities, with potential for walking in the surrounding countryside.
Hypothesis: The property's value is heavily influenced by its proximity to the specific services within Glenties and Ardara, rather than wider regional connectivity, suggesting that a buyer would prioritize local community and rural lifestyle over extensive transport links or diverse retail options.
