Market Position
Limited Transaction Data
At €460,000, we cannot reliably position this property — only 1 comparable closed sale was found within 5.0km. More local transactions are needed before the data can support a market position estimate.
Sources: PPR, SEAI, OPW, planning records.
Bid Model Unavailable
Not enough closed transaction data for this property.
We found 1 comparable transaction within 5.0km over the past 36 months. A minimum of 3 is required to derive a statistically reliable bid strategy. Purchasing a report is not available for this property.
This can happen for properties in lower-turnover areas or very specific property types. Check back as new transactions register on the Property Price Register, or search for a nearby comparable property.

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 B3 Efficiency: With a B3 BER rating, annual energy costs are estimated to be €1,500-€2,000, offering moderate savings compared to lower-rated properties in the region.
Generous Size: At 261.0m², the property provides substantial living space, which is a strong positive factor for its valuation, especially given the limited number of comparable properties.
Upgrade Potential: While the BER B3 is decent, upgrading to a B2 or A-rated BER could potentially increase the property's value by €10,000-€15,000 for an estimated cost of €6,000-€9,000, optimizing its long-term appeal.
Hypothesis: The B3 BER rating, while not top-tier, combined with the substantial 261m² footprint, indicates a well-built property for its era; further investment in energy efficiency upgrades could unlock significant capital appreciation in a market where such metrics are increasingly valued.
Amenities
Limited Transport Connectivity: As Massbrook Bay House is located outside Dublin and no specific public transport routes (bus, train, Luas, DART) are listed for this precise rural address, private transport is essential for access.
Remote Rural Setting: The property's location in Bofeenaun, Ballina, Co. Mayo, suggests a rural setting with limited immediate access to major towns for retail, education, or healthcare amenities.
Natural Landscape Appeal: Situated in Massbrook South, the property likely offers significant natural beauty and tranquility, which is a key lifestyle amenity for buyers seeking peace and seclusion.
Hypothesis: The lack of specified public transport and proximity to services suggests that this property appeals to a niche buyer prioritizing rural tranquility and a strong connection with nature over convenience and urban accessibility, potentially limiting the buyer pool but attracting those who value the specific lifestyle.
