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: With a G BER rating, significant investment is needed for energy efficiency upgrades; upgrading to a B2 rating would likely cost €15,000-€25,000 and could increase property value by €20,000-€30,000.
Details
- Size Efficiency: The property offers 120m² across 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, a configuration that generally aligns with family needs, but the size might be considered average rather than expansive for its asking price.
- Value Optimization: Given the G BER rating, the current estimated annual energy costs are likely in the region of €2,500-€3,500, a substantial outgoing that detracts from the property's value proposition compared to properties with better energy ratings.
- Hypothesis: The substantial cost implication of upgrading a G-rated BER property from an estimated €15,000-€25,000 for insulation and heating upgrades to achieve a B2 rating, combined with the significant annual energy cost difference of €1,700-€2,300 compared to a B-rated property, presents a clear financial hurdle that will significantly depress its market value until addressed.
Amenities
Transport Connectivity: As Marconi House is located in Crookhaven, Co. Cork, typical public transport options like Dublin Bus routes, Luas, or DART stations are not directly referenced in the provided data and are likely to be limited or require significant travel.
Details
- Local Services: Specific schools, hospitals, or major shopping centres are not detailed for Crookhaven within the provided data, suggesting a reliance on more distant facilities.
- Walkability: While Crookhaven offers coastal charm, walkability for essential services like shops, schools, or healthcare is likely limited, implying a need for private transport.
- Hypothesis: The remote coastal location of Crookhaven, indicated by the lack of readily available public transport and amenities data, suggests that while offering a unique lifestyle, it presents significant practical challenges for daily commuting or accessing services, thus creating a substantial 'location discount' compared to properties closer to urban centres, even with similar physical attributes.
