How this is calculated
We search the Property Price Register for closed sales near this property — matching by location, beds, property type, and where available, floor area (±20%). This gives us a set of genuinely comparable transactions.
Each sale is then time-adjusted to today using local price trends, so a sale from 18 months ago is inflated (or deflated) to reflect current market conditions. Where floor area is known, sales are also size-adjusted — a 90m² sale is normalised to what it would have sold for at this property's size. This means the figures you see aren't raw prices — they're what those same homes would likely sell for today, at this size.
Your bid strategy (opening offer, sealed bid range, walk-away ceiling) is then derived from the statistical distribution of these adjusted sales — with conservative safety margins applied when data is thin or dated.
Every figure comes from actual government-recorded sale prices. No asking prices, no agent estimates, no automated valuations.

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
Exceptional Energy Efficiency: With an A3 BER rating, the annual energy costs are estimated to be €800-€1,200, significantly lower than the €1,800-€2,200 expected for a D-rated property of similar size in the area.
Details
- Spacious Configuration: The property offers a generous 372.0m² of living space with 5 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms, exceeding the median of 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms found within a 10km radius.
- Premium Finishes: The high BER rating (A3) implies modern construction or significant upgrades, potentially adding €15,000-€20,000 in value compared to properties with lower energy efficiency ratings (D-G) which would cost €8,000-€12,000 to upgrade to a similar standard.
- Hypothesis: The substantial difference in size (372m² vs. a 10km median of ~150m² implied by 3 beds) and the A3 BER rating suggest this property may have been built or extensively renovated post-2010 to high modern standards, indicating a potential to attract a premium market segment focused on energy efficiency and spacious living away from urban centres.
Amenities
Limited Public Transport: There are no specific bus routes, train stations, Luas, or DART stations mentioned as serving Ballyhack directly in the provided data, indicating reliance on private transport for connectivity.
Details
- Local Services Scarce: Within a 5km radius, there are only 9 nearby properties listed and limited specific amenities detailed, suggesting a rural setting with fewer immediate retail, educational, or healthcare facilities.
- Regional Access: The nearest town, New Ross, is likely to offer more amenities, with average asking prices within 20km showing some price variation, indicating that proximity to larger towns influences value.
- Hypothesis: The remote location of Ballyhack, while offering a unique lifestyle, suggests that its property value is heavily influenced by the desirability of its natural surroundings and proximity to coastal amenities, rather than traditional urban connectivity or services, meaning its premium lies in its specific niche appeal.
