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
Significant BER Upgrade Needed: With a G BER rating, upgrading to a B2 could cost an estimated €8,000-€12,000, but this investment could potentially increase the property's value by €15,000-€20,000, transforming its market appeal and reducing estimated annual energy costs from €1,800-€2,200 to €800-€1,200.
Details
- Small Property Footprint: At 42.0m², this one-bedroom terrace is considerably smaller than the median of 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms within a 100km radius, suggesting a mismatch with typical buyer preferences and potentially limiting its resale value.
- Value Optimization Opportunity: The current G BER rating implies significantly higher running costs, estimated at €1,800-€2,200 annually, compared to B-rated properties which average €800-€1,200, presenting a clear opportunity for value optimization through energy efficiency improvements.
- Hypothesis: The high cost associated with improving a G-rated BER to a more desirable C or B rating in a small terrace property, combined with its limited size, may make it more attractive as a buy-to-let investment where rental yield is the primary driver, rather than a long-term family home.
Amenities
Limited Public Transport Access: While located on Upper Main Street, Donegal, Doagh, Co. Donegal, F94K8H1, there is no mention of specific bus routes, train stations, or Luas/DART stops serving this immediate rural area, suggesting potentially poor connectivity for commuters.
Details
- Basic Local Services: Information regarding specific schools, healthcare facilities, or shopping centres within close proximity is not provided, making it difficult to assess the quality of life and convenience for residents in terms of daily necessities and family services.
- Low Walkability Potential: Without specific details on pedestrian infrastructure or nearby amenities like parks and cafes, the walkability of Upper Main Street in Doagh is likely limited, characteristic of many rural locations in Co. Donegal.
- Hypothesis: Given the property's rural Co. Donegal location and the absence of specific transport and amenity data, its value is likely driven by the intrinsic appeal of the local scenery and community, rather than accessibility to major urban centres or comprehensive services.
