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 Rating Concern: The E2 BER rating indicates significant potential for energy cost savings; upgrading to a C1 rating could cost an estimated €15,000-€20,000 but potentially increase the property's value by €25,000-€30,000.
Generous Size: At 265m², the property offers ample living space, exceeding typical family home sizes and providing a strong foundation for comfortable living.
Upgrade Opportunity: Investing in energy efficiency upgrades from E2 to a B2 rating, estimated at €10,000-€15,000, could reduce annual heating costs by approximately €1,200-€1,600 compared to current levels.
Hypothesis: The E2 BER rating, while impacting immediate running costs, represents a significant value-add opportunity; focused retrofitting could align the property with market expectations for energy efficiency and unlock substantial capital appreciation beyond the initial investment.
Amenities
Remote Location: Lissoughter, Recess is situated in a rural area of Co. Galway, meaning public transport links are extremely limited.
No Specific Transport: No bus routes, train stations, Luas, or DART stations are listed as serving this immediate rural location.
Limited Services: Access to educational facilities, healthcare, shopping, and lifestyle amenities would require significant travel, likely necessitating private transport.
Hypothesis: The property's extreme remoteness and lack of public transport infrastructure will likely limit its buyer pool to those seeking absolute seclusion, significantly impacting its resale value and market appeal compared to properties with better connectivity.
