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
Subpar BER Rating: The SI_666 BER rating suggests significant energy inefficiencies; upgrading from this level to a B2 could cost between €8,000-€12,000 and potentially increase property value by €15,000-€20,000.
Average Size: With 120.0m² across 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, the property offers an average of 60.0m² per bedroom, which is typical for its size but may feel less spacious compared to properties with more bedrooms.
Value Optimization Needed: Given the SI_666 BER rating, the property's current estimated annual energy costs are likely €1,800-€2,200, representing a clear opportunity to optimize value and reduce running expenses through efficiency upgrades.
Hypothesis: Properties in this area with similar SI_666 BER ratings are likely experiencing higher-than-average heating costs, creating a strong buyer incentive for energy-efficient upgrades which could significantly boost resale value.
Amenities
Limited Public Transport: The rural location of Reentrusk, Allihies, Ballydonegan, Co. Cork, means direct public transport links are scarce; there are no specific bus routes, train stations, Luas, or DART stops immediately serving this address.
Local Services: Access to healthcare, shopping, and dining would likely require travel to larger towns such as Castletownbere (approx. 20km), offering limited immediate access to specific shops, supermarkets, or restaurants.
Remote Lifestyle: The area offers significant natural beauty with access to walking routes along the coast and the Beara Peninsula, but lacks dedicated parks, gyms, or specific childcare facilities within close proximity.
Hypothesis: The lack of immediate urban amenities and public transport in Allihies suggests a property appealing to those seeking a quiet, rural lifestyle, where the primary value drivers are natural surroundings and a slower pace of life, rather than convenience and connectivity.
