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 Impact: The C3 BER rating suggests that upgrading to a B2 rating could cost an estimated €8,000-€12,000, potentially increasing the property's value by €15,000-€20,000 and reducing annual energy costs compared to its current rating.
Spacious Living: With 157.0m² of floor space, this detached property is considered very large for the local market, offering ample room for a family or occupants seeking generous living areas.
Value Optimization Potential: While the property is well-sized, its single bathroom configuration for three bedrooms and a C3 BER rating may present opportunities for enhancement to align with market expectations and improve its appeal and resale value.
Hypothesis: Given the property's large size and C3 BER, a strategic investment in adding a second bathroom and upgrading the insulation to achieve a B2 or higher BER rating could unlock significant value, potentially bridging the gap between its current estimated value and its asking price by €30,000-€40,000.
Amenities
Regional Connectivity: The property's location in Killeigh, Tullamore, is served by Bus Éireann routes connecting to larger towns, with Tullamore Train Station providing rail access to Dublin and other major cities within a reasonable drive.
Local Services: While specific details for Killeigh are limited, Tullamore offers a comprehensive range of amenities including Tullamore General Hospital, major supermarkets like Tesco and Dunnes Stores, and various retail outlets in the town centre.
Educational Access: Families in the Killeigh area would typically rely on schools in nearby Tullamore, such as Tullamore Educate Together National School and Coláiste Choilm, offering educational options for primary and secondary students.
Hypothesis: The property's rural setting offers tranquility, but its value and appeal are intrinsically linked to the infrastructure development plans for Tullamore and its surrounding villages, with any improvements in public transport connectivity or the addition of new local services in Killeigh itself likely to positively impact future property values.
