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 Rating: With a C3 BER rating, this bungalow is moderately efficient; upgrading to a B2 rating could potentially cost €8,000-€12,000 and increase property value by €15,000-€20,000, offering a good return on investment.
Size Efficiency: At 78.0m², this 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom bungalow is efficiently laid out for its size, making it suitable for a small family or couple, but potentially limiting for larger households.
Value Optimization Potential: While the BER is C3, focusing on insulation and draught-proofing improvements could enhance comfort and reduce annual energy costs from an estimated €1,400-€1,800 (for C3) to €1,000-€1,400 (for B2), improving market appeal.
Hypothesis: Given the C3 BER rating, a targeted investment in improving insulation and sealing could boost the property's energy efficiency to a B-rated level, potentially making it more attractive to buyers prioritizing lower running costs and increasing its value by an estimated €15,000-€20,000.
Amenities
Transport Connectivity: Connectivity to major transport hubs is limited, with no specific bus routes, train stations, or Luas/DART stops mentioned as directly serving this rural location in the provided data.
Local Services: Specific educational facilities, healthcare access points, shopping centers, or childcare services for Lecarrow, Ballysakeery, Ballina, Co Mayo are not detailed in the raw data.
Walkability: As a rural property, walkability and pedestrian access would likely be limited to local roads and natural surroundings, with no specific walking routes or pedestrian infrastructure detailed.
Hypothesis: The lack of specific amenity data within the provided metrics suggests that properties in this area rely heavily on private transport and are likely to have Ballina town as the primary service hub, indicating that buyer appeal will be strongly tied to the convenience of reaching these main amenities rather than local walkability.
