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 current G BER rating suggests significant energy inefficiencies, with estimated annual energy costs likely ranging from €2,500-€3,500, considerably higher than the €800-€1,200 for properties with A-ratings.
Upgrade Costs: Improving the BER from G to a B2 rating would likely cost between €15,000-€25,000, but could increase the property's value by €20,000-€30,000, offering a substantial return on investment.
Space Efficiency: With 6 bedrooms and 120.0m² of space, the property offers a high bedroom-to-square-meter ratio (1 bedroom per 20.0m²), suggesting potentially smaller room sizes or a less efficient layout compared to modern standards.
Hypothesis: Given the G BER rating and substantial upgrade costs required, the property's current value is significantly depressed by its energy performance; a strategic investment in insulation, heating systems, and window upgrades could unlock considerable latent value, potentially boosting its market appeal and saleability within the local context where energy efficiency is becoming a key purchasing driver.
Amenities
Transport Connectivity: This property is located in Doonbeg, Co. Clare, which is outside the immediate Dublin transport network; there are no direct Luas, DART, or Dublin Bus routes serving this specific rural location, requiring reliance on local bus services or private transport.
Educational Facilities: Educational options in the immediate vicinity include Doonbeg National School for primary education, with secondary options likely requiring travel to larger towns such as Kilkee or Ennis.
Healthcare Access: Local healthcare is likely provided by GPs in Doonbeg, with Ennis General Hospital approximately a 40-minute drive away for more comprehensive medical services.
Hypothesis: The property's rural location in Doonbeg, Co. Clare, offers a tranquil lifestyle but lacks the extensive public transport, diverse shopping, and immediate access to specialized healthcare and higher education facilities found in urban or suburban areas, which could limit its appeal to certain buyer demographics, particularly commuters or families prioritizing convenience.
