Exterior read
This property is a two-storey detached/link-detached family residence situated in a quiet, mature residential enclave. The home features rendered exterior elevations with decorative corner quoin detailing, a pitched tiled main roof with a skylight, an enclosed front entrance porch, and an attached side garage. The grounds offer generous off-street parking, established boundary hedges, and a private rear garden space.
▲ What stands out
Ample off-street private parking with a wide tarmac driveway plus an attached side garage
Desirable position within a quiet, established, low-traffic suburban cul-de-sac setting
Pleasant curb appeal featuring classical corner quoins, front entrance porch, and a hipped tiled roof
Well-maintained mature boundary hedging providing excellent visual privacy from the street
Generous rear garden plot bordered to the south by a large, open neighbouring grounds buffer
▼ Watch for
Flat roof covering over the side garage/extension carries higher maintenance requirements and risk of water pooling
Tarmac driveway shows some surface wear and patching that may eventually require resurfacing
Proximity of large mature trees nearby necessitates ongoing pruning and routine gutter/drain clearance
Close proximity to the neighbouring structure to the north restricts lateral expansion opportunities
Skylight/roof window penetrations require routine inspection for flashing and seal integrity

Asking price vs comparable homes High confidence
Priced higherAbout rightPriced lower
The asking price sits above our fair-value estimate.
Based on comparable homes on the market now — beds, size, BER, type and area. Our estimate for a home like this is around €731,000 (€658,000–€804,000). Estimates at this confidence land within 20% of the sale price about 72% of the time.
This compares the asking price only. It cannot see condition, interior, garden or aspect — a home priced low may need work. Use it to shortlist, not to decide. Our price model is typically within ~18%, so treat the range, not the midpoint, as the signal.

Area context, not a like-for-like guide to this home.
Fair value blends our price model with the price per m² of 9 comparable homes for sale; the asking is 136% above its midpoint. Homes in Ireland often sell over asking in strong areas, so the top of the range is fair value, not a ceiling. A guide for your negotiation, not a valuation — the right bid also depends on how much you want it and what you can borrow.
