Confidence Level
Sale prices in this area vary more than usual, so there is some uncertainty in the figures. Bid conservatively and in small increments.
Limited recent transaction volume reduces trend precision. Strategy remains anchored to closed-sale distribution.
PPR closed sales · size & time adjusted · no asking prices used
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 Impact: The 'SI_666' BER rating is effectively unknown, making it impossible to assess energy efficiency and potential cost savings or necessary upgrade investments without further investigation.
Details
- Significant Size, Few Beds: With 1131m² of space and 21 bedrooms, the property has an exceptionally low density of bedrooms per square meter, suggesting a need for significant reconfiguration to be suitable as a standard residential property.
- BER Upgrade Opportunity: Given the 'Unknown' BER, upgrading to a B2 rating could cost an estimated €8,000-€12,000 per unit, potentially increasing the property's long-term value and marketability, though the sheer scale makes this a complex undertaking.
- Hypothesis: The extraordinary size and bedroom count of this former convent, coupled with an unknown BER, suggests its current valuation may be heavily influenced by its unique status and potential for alternative uses (e.g., boutique hotel, community centre) rather than its suitability as a conventional residential dwelling.
Amenities
Limited Local Connectivity: Wexford Town itself offers limited public transport options; while there are local bus services, direct links to major transport hubs like train stations (e.g., Wexford Train Station is approximately 1.5km away) require significant transfers or travel.
Details
- Educational Access: Proximity to educational facilities includes Wexford CBS Primary School and Presentation Secondary School, both within a 1km walk, offering good local options for younger families.
- Healthcare Proximity: Wexford General Hospital is located approximately 2.5km from Francis Street, providing accessible healthcare services for residents.
- Hypothesis: The property's location within Wexford Town provides essential local amenities like schools and healthcare within walking distance, but its connectivity to national transport networks (rail, major road networks) is limited, which could constrain its appeal to a broader buyer pool seeking easy commuting options.
