Is 16 Marlton Demense worth the asking price?

Asking within our estimated range. The asking price is 4% above our €577,000 midpoint.

Our estimate €577k
Asking €600k
€483kEstimated range €519k to €635k€679k

If you bid, think in €519,000 to €635,000. Opening near €503,000 would be aggressive in this market. A house priced like this is likely to close near the asking.

How we estimate

We take recent sold prices from the Property Price Register, adjust each to today's money with the CSO price index, and weight them by how close and how recent they are. We blend that with a model trained on 5,000 matched sales that knows how price moves with floor area, bedrooms, BER, type and area, and we correct for condition read. Our estimate is the blend; the range is where 80% of homes like this actually sold.

Tested on sales the model had never seen: half land within 8% of the sale price, four in five within 20%. It never sees the survey. An estimate, not a valuation.

The property is a modern two-storey family residence located at the head of a cul-de-sac in a quiet residential development (Marlton Demesne). It features a ground-floor side extension, off-street driveway, and a sizeable enclosed rear garden with established tree screening. Based on external visual inspection, the property appears structurally sound and well-maintained.

In its favour

  • Situated at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, offering minimal through-traffic and enhanced privacy
  • Features dedicated off-street driveway parking capable of accommodating multiple vehicles
  • Includes an existing single-storey side extension providing additional ground-floor living area
  • Substantial rear garden plot benefiting from natural privacy provided by mature surrounding trees

Watch for

  • Proximity of large mature trees near boundaries may present root ingress risks and shaded garden areas
  • Roof junction flashings between the main structure and side extension require careful monitoring for leaks
  • Cul-de-sac head positioning limits direct front street frontage and guest street parking options
  • Driveway and exterior hardstanding show surface weathering that may require future resealing or repaving

Inside: move-in ready condition

What should I check before I sign?

24 large multi-unit applications on the register within 1 km. These are applications matching multi-unit residential wording anywhere in the planning record for this area, which goes back decades. Some will be long built, some refused, some still to come. Check the dates and decisions before drawing any conclusion about what is actually coming.

BER C3, reasonable, short of the green-rate threshold. Comfortable enough, but under the B3 most lenders want for a green mortgage discount. The discount is modest (roughly 0.1–0.35 points) but the comfort gain is real. Ask what would get it to B3 and price that against the rate saving.

10 must-do checks, tailored to this house. Budget €3.1k to €6.2k for the paid ones.

Get your surveyor to

Commission a pre-purchase survey from a chartered building surveyor
The most important spend before you sign, and the only thing that examines the actual fabric of the building. Nothing in an online report replaces it.
MUST
€500 to €1.1k

Get your solicitor to

Instruct a solicitor for title, planning and local authority searches
Confirms the seller owns what they are selling and that everything built has permission.
MUST
€2.2k to €4.5k
Get Certificates of Compliance with planning and Building Regulations for any extension or attic conversion
Unauthorised work can block your mortgage and becomes your problem the day you close.
MUST
Check the Local Property Tax band is correctly declared and paid up
An under-declared band follows the property to you, not the seller.
MUST
Review the nearby planning applications in full
What gets built next door affects both how you live there and what you sell it for.
MUST

Ask the seller or agent

Ask for the BER certificate and the advisory report that goes with it
The advisory report lists the specific upgrades recommended for this house.
MUST
Ask why they are selling and how long they have owned it
Free, and it tells you more about the property and your negotiating room than any document.
MUST

Do this on your viewing

View a second time at a different time of day
Traffic, noise, parking and light all change. Most buyers only ever see a house once.
MUST

Sort with your lender or broker

Confirm your approval covers this specific property and price
Approval in principle is not a loan offer. The lender still has to value and approve this house.
MUST
€150 to €200
Budget for stamp duty and check what other costs land at closing
Stamp duty is 1% up to €1m, 2% between €1m and €1.5m, and 6% above that.
MUST
9 more worth doing
Confirm the boundaries on the title map match what you were shown
Boundary disputes are slow, expensive and surprisingly common.
SHOULD
Check the BER certificate has not expired
A BER lasts ten years. An expired cert will not support a green mortgage rate application.
SHOULD
Look for Japanese knotweed in the garden and along boundaries
It is a genuine mortgage blocker in Ireland, and treatment runs for several years.
SHOULD
Ask whether the property has ever flooded, and about any insurance refusals
A seller need not volunteer problems, but must not misrepresent when asked. So ask, in writing, through your solicitor.
SHOULD
Run every tap, flush every toilet, open every window
Water pressure, drainage and rotten frames are expensive and easy to miss in a ten-minute viewing.
SHOULD
Get into the attic and look under the stairs
Insulation depth, damp and the age of the wiring are all visible where nobody looks.
SHOULD
Get a SEAI Home Energy Assessment and a retrofit quote
Turns a vague "needs work" into a real number you can bid against.
SHOULD
€180 to €300
Do a radon test if you buy, or ask if one has been done
Ireland is a European radon hotspot. Testing is cheap and remediation is usually straightforward.
WORTH IT
€30 to €50
Ask your broker what the rate would be at B3, and about the Home Energy Upgrade Loan
The green discount plus a low-rate upgrade loan can cover a good share of the work.
