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 Unknown Risk: The property's BER rating is currently unknown, presenting a potential risk for energy efficiency and future running costs; for context, upgrading a typical D-rated property to B2 could cost €8,000-€12,000 but increase value by €15,000-€20,000.
Details
- Unusual Configuration: This 120m² detached home features only 1 bedroom, a unique layout compared to the local median of 3 bedrooms within a 5km radius, which might appeal to a niche buyer seeking spacious living or a conversion project.
- Generous Space: Despite the single bedroom, the substantial 120m² floor area offers considerable living space, providing potential for internal reconfiguration or expansion (subject to planning) to better align with market preferences for more bedrooms.
- Hypothesis: The property's large footprint combined with a single bedroom hints at either an older, potentially unmodernised dwelling with generous room sizes, or a deliberately minimalist design choice that could be a significant value-add for niche buyers or a conversion hurdle for mainstream purchasers.
Amenities
Limited Public Transport: Connectivity relies heavily on private car, with limited public transport options; Local Link Donegal operates services such as Route 290 (Gortahork to Letterkenny) and Route 991 (Gortahork - Falcarragh - Dunfanaghy), but frequency is generally low.
Details
- Local Educational & Healthcare Hubs: The area provides essential services, with schools like Scoil Náisiúnta Rann na Feirste and Pobalscoil Chloich Cheannfhaola in nearby Falcarragh, alongside local health centres in Gortahork and Falcarragh, and pharmacies such as McCafferty's Pharmacy.
- Scenic Coastal Lifestyle: Situated near the Wild Atlantic Way, residents benefit from access to natural amenities like Magheroarty Beach and Ards Forest Park, with local shops including Eurospar in Gortahork providing daily essentials.
- Hypothesis: The property's rural, scenic location, while offering unparalleled natural beauty and tranquility, likely commands a premium for lifestyle buyers seeking seclusion, potentially at the expense of immediate access to diverse urban amenities and frequent public transport options.
