How this is calculated
We search the Property Price Register for closed sales near this property — matching by location, beds, property type, and where available, floor area (±20%). This gives us a set of genuinely comparable transactions.
Each sale is then time-adjusted to today using local price trends, so a sale from 18 months ago is inflated (or deflated) to reflect current market conditions. Where floor area is known, sales are also size-adjusted — a 90m² sale is normalised to what it would have sold for at this property's size. This means the figures you see aren't raw prices — they're what those same homes would likely sell for today, at this size.
Your bid strategy (opening offer, sealed bid range, walk-away ceiling) is then derived from the statistical distribution of these adjusted sales — with conservative safety margins applied when data is thin or dated.
Every figure comes from actual government-recorded sale prices. No asking prices, no agent estimates, no automated valuations.

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 Efficiency: The B3 BER rating indicates a moderate level of energy efficiency; upgrading to a B2 would likely cost €8,000-€12,000 and could potentially increase the property's value by €15,000-€20,000.
Space Utilization: With 120m² across 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, the property offers 40m² per bedroom, a generous allocation compared to the typical local offering.
Value Optimization Potential: While the B3 BER rating is decent, a strategic focus on insulation and window upgrades could bring it closer to a B1 or A3 rating, potentially reducing annual energy costs by €300-€500 compared to its current rating and improving market appeal.
Hypothesis: Given the B3 BER rating, investing in a heat pump system and improving attic insulation could elevate the BER to A3 for an estimated cost of €7,000-€10,000, thereby unlocking an additional €12,000-€18,000 in potential property value and an annual saving of €400-€700 on energy bills.
Amenities
Transport Links: While specific routes for Kilkenny are not provided in the data, the location 'outside Dublin' suggests it would not benefit from Luas, DART, or Dublin Bus services, requiring reliance on local bus services or private transport.
Local Services: Given Kells Road, Kilkenny, the area likely has access to St. Kieran's College, Kilkenny College, and the Kilkenny Educate Together National School for education, and St. Luke's Hospital and various local clinics for healthcare.
Lifestyle and Retail: Proximity to Kilkenny City centre would offer amenities like Kilkenny Castle, the Medieval Mile, numerous restaurants and cafes such as Campagne and Ristorante Rinuccini, and shops like Kilkenny Design Centre and Supervalu.
Hypothesis: The property's location outside a major city centre like Dublin, while offering a potentially quieter lifestyle, may present a challenge for commuter appeal; however, the established infrastructure of Kilkenny City provides essential services and amenities that could counterbalance the lack of direct access to national transport hubs, making it attractive for those prioritizing a regional lifestyle.
