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
Pending BER Rating: With a BER rating of 'PENDING', potential buyers cannot assess energy efficiency, which could lead to higher-than-expected energy bills ranging from €1,800-€2,200 annually for a comparable property compared to a B-rated property saving €800-€1,200.
Upgrade Potential: If the BER rating is D or below, upgrading to a B2 could cost €8,000-€12,000 and potentially increase the property's value by €15,000-€20,000.
Generous Size: At 148.0m² with 4 bedrooms, this apartment offers substantial living space, which is typically a strong selling point and commands a premium over smaller units.
Hypothesis: The 'PENDING' BER rating creates an information gap; however, if the rating falls into the D or E category, there's a clear opportunity for a €15,000-€20,000 value uplift through an estimated €8,000-€12,000 investment in energy efficiency upgrades, maximizing long-term returns.
Amenities
Coastal Location Access: Fountainstown offers proximity to coastal walks and beaches, enhancing lifestyle appeal.
Local Services: While specific amenities for Fountainstown are not detailed in the provided data, Cork city centre is accessible for a wider range of shopping and dining.
Limited Public Transport Data: Specific bus routes, train stations, or Luas/DART stops serving Sunview, Fountainstown, P43HK85 are not provided, making commuter convenience difficult to assess.
Hypothesis: Given Fountainstown's semi-rural coastal setting, there's a strong likelihood that the immediate area lacks extensive public transport links and a high density of retail and educational facilities, making a car essential for residents and suggesting a premium for properties offering direct commuter routes or exceptional local charm.
