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 Potential: With an unknown BER rating (SI_666), a prospective buyer should factor in an energy assessment; a common upgrade from a D to a B2 rating could cost €8,000-€15,000 but could enhance the property's value by €15,000-€25,000.
Details
- Bathroom Count Consideration: The property's 93m² size provides a compact 3-bedroom detached living space, but its single bathroom is less than the median of two bathrooms found in comparable 3-bedroom properties sold within a 20km radius over the last 180 days, potentially impacting its appeal to some families.
- Detached Home Appeal: As a detached home, it offers desired privacy, yet its smaller footprint and single bathroom compared to the larger, multi-bathroom 4-bedroom homes that sold at a median of €550,000 in the 5km radius suggest it targets a buyer segment prioritizing affordability and detached living over extensive space.
- Hypothesis: A strategic investment in upgrading the BER and adding a second bathroom or an ensuite could not only significantly increase the property's overall market value but also broaden its appeal to a wider range of buyers, including families, potentially unlocking its full investment potential.
Amenities
Regional Bus Connectivity: Transport connectivity is served by Bus Éireann Route 237, offering connections from Timoleague to Cork City via Bandon, providing essential access to larger urban centers, though it's primarily a regional service suitable for occasional travel.
Details
- Essential Local Services: Key local amenities in Timoleague village itself include Timoleague National School, Timoleague Pharmacy, and the Timoleague Health Centre, ensuring convenient access to fundamental educational and healthcare services for residents.
- Convenient Shopping & Leisure: For daily needs and leisure, Centra Timoleague offers local shopping, while the wider selection of supermarkets like SuperValu, Lidl, and Aldi, along with various restaurants and recreational facilities, are readily accessible within a 15km drive in nearby Bandon and Clonakilty.
- Hypothesis: The property's location in Timoleague, offering a blend of rural tranquility with immediate access to essential village amenities and scenic coastal attractions, creates a unique lifestyle premium, making it particularly attractive to buyers seeking a community-focused, quality of life environment outside of major urban hubs.
