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 D2 Upgrade Opportunity: Upgrading the D2 BER rating could cost an estimated €8,000-€12,000 for insulation and heating system improvements, potentially increasing property value by €15,000-€20,000, offering a good return on investment.
Details
- Size and Configuration Mismatch: With 83m² and 1 bathroom for 4 bedrooms, the property is configured below the 10km median of 4 beds and 3 baths, potentially impacting long-term appeal and resale value.
- Value Optimization Potential: Despite the D2 BER, the asking price is significantly below comparable properties, indicating that basic improvements to the BER and potential bathroom upgrade could unlock substantial value.
- Hypothesis: The significant disparity between the number of bedrooms (4) and bathrooms (1) suggests a primary renovation opportunity, and addressing this by adding a second bathroom could command a premium of €25,000-€35,000 within the local market, significantly enhancing the property's appeal and value proposition.
Amenities
Limited Public Transport Access: The property's location outside Dublin means it is not served by specific Dublin Bus routes, Luas, or DART stations mentioned in the data, implying reliance on private transport.
Details
- Kinsale's Coastal Charm: Situated in Kinsale, Co. Cork, the area offers a rich lifestyle with renowned restaurants like Fishy Fishy and The Fishers, alongside amenities such as Charles Fort and Kinsale Golf Club, enhancing quality of life.
- Local Services and Connectivity: While specific schools and shops are not detailed for Winter's Hill, Kinsale town centre offers essential services, including supermarkets like Lidl and Aldi, and educational facilities such as Kinsale Community School.
- Hypothesis: The rural setting of Winter's Hill, Kinsale, while offering lifestyle benefits, presents a connectivity challenge; potential buyers commuting to Cork City would likely face a significant drive of 30-40 minutes, making it less attractive for daily commuters compared to properties with direct public transport links.
