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
Energy Efficiency: With a B3 BER rating, this property offers strong energy efficiency, potentially saving €1,000-€1,400 annually compared to a D-rated property of similar size, where annual energy costs are typically €1,800-€2,200.
Details
- Generous Proportions: The expansive 210m² bungalow offers substantial living space, making it significantly larger than the median property (typically 3 beds) within a 10km radius, providing excellent value for a large family or multi-generational living.
- Optimal Configuration: Featuring 6 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, this property provides a rare and highly functional layout, especially when compared to the typical 3-bed, 2-bath properties dominating the market within a 10km radius, enhancing its appeal for larger households.
- Hypothesis: The property's combination of significant size (210m²), high bedroom count (6), and an excellent B3 BER rating positions it as a rare gem in the local market, suggesting it could command a substantial premium from buyers specifically seeking spacious, energy-efficient family homes, which are currently underserved in this region.
Amenities
Commuter Access: Excellent transport connectivity is provided by proximity to the M9 motorway, offering direct routes to Dublin (approx. 1 hour drive) and Waterford, complemented by rail services from Athy Train Station (approx. 10km) on the Dublin-Waterford line.
Details
- Education & Healthcare: The area is well-served by local educational facilities, including Maganey National School nearby, and secondary options like Athy College (approx. 10km) and St. Leo's College in Carlow (approx. 15km); healthcare access is supported by local GP clinics and pharmacies in Athy and Carlow.
- Shopping & Lifestyle: Everyday convenience is high with major retail options in Athy (Dunnes Stores, Lidl, Aldi) and Carlow (Fairgreen Shopping Centre, Tesco, SuperValu), along with local services and recreational areas like the River Barrow Navigation for walks.
- Hypothesis: The strategic blend of rural tranquility and strong road/rail links to major towns like Athy and Carlow, along with access to the M9 for Dublin commuters, positions Newtownpilsworth as an increasingly attractive location for families seeking more space and value outside the immediate Greater Dublin Area, driving sustained demand for well-appointed properties.
