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
Significant BER Upgrade Opportunity: With a G BER rating, upgrading to a B2 rating could cost an estimated €12,000-€18,000 but has the potential to increase the property's value by €20,000-€30,000.
Details
- Below-Average Size: The property's 55.0m² size is considerably smaller than the median of 3 bedrooms (typically larger floor areas) and the median 2 bathrooms observed within a 100km radius, suggesting a potential space constraint for many buyers.
- Cost of Improvement: Achieving a 'C' BER rating from 'G' could involve insulation upgrades, new heating systems, and window replacements, estimated to cost between €10,000 and €15,000, while potentially adding €15,000 to €20,000 in property value.
- Hypothesis: The current G BER rating, combined with a small footprint, indicates a property that will require significant capital investment for modernization and energy efficiency improvements to align with current market expectations and achieve its full valuation potential.
Amenities
Limited Local Transport: The absence of specific bus routes, train stations, or Luas/DART stops within the provided data for Moneynamuck, Johnstown, Galmoy suggests very limited public transport connectivity.
Details
- Distance to Services: Without specific local school names, healthcare facilities, or retail centres mentioned in the amenities analysis for this precise location, access to essential services is presumed to be via private transport over significant distances.
- Rural Location Impact: The property's location outside Dublin and the lack of specific local amenities mentioned indicate a reliance on car ownership for accessing daily necessities, shopping, and employment, which could limit its appeal to certain buyer demographics.
- Hypothesis: The property's rural location, evidenced by the lack of specific public transport routes and local services detailed, suggests that its value appreciation will be heavily dependent on future infrastructure development or increased local employment opportunities within driving distance, rather than immediate amenity-driven demand.
