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 Rating Impact: The C2 BER rating for this property means annual energy costs could be approximately €1,500-€2,000, whereas a D-rated equivalent could incur €2,000-€2,700, representing potential annual savings of €500-€700.
Details
- Spacious Configuration: With 254 sqm of living space and 6 bedrooms, this property offers significantly more space than the median 3-bedroom properties observed within a 100km radius, aligning with demand for larger family homes.
- Potential for Value Enhancement: Investing in energy efficiency upgrades from a C2 BER rating to a B2 or B1 could cost an estimated €10,000-€15,000 but may increase the property's value by €20,000-€30,000 and significantly reduce ongoing running costs.
- Hypothesis: While the property offers ample space, its C2 BER rating suggests an opportunity for significant value uplift through targeted energy efficiency upgrades. Further analysis of local renovation trends and average costs for upgrades to a B-rated standard could reveal a strong ROI for a future owner.
Amenities
Connectivity Limitations: The property's rural location in Moate, Co. Westmeath, means it is not directly served by Luas or DART services, and the nearest train station (Mullingar) requires travel of over 20km.
Details
- Local Services Access: While specific local amenities for Labaun, Mount Temple are not detailed, the general area of Moate offers primary schools like Scoil na nÓg and secondary options like Coláiste Mhuire, with local shops and healthcare facilities available within a 5-10km radius.
- Commuter Inconvenience: Without direct public transport links, commuting to larger urban centers like Dublin would necessitate private vehicle use, with an estimated driving time of over 1.5 hours to Dublin city centre, impacting daily commute options.
- Hypothesis: The property's current lack of direct public transport links and its rural setting will likely appeal to a niche market prioritizing space and tranquility over urban convenience, but may limit its appeal to a broader buyer pool seeking easier commutes, potentially capping future capital appreciation relative to more connected areas.
