Is Ballytoohey worth the asking price?

We can only give a rough guide here.

Asking €385,000. Our rough guide is €264,000 to €440,000, a wide band around €352,000, because only 59 comparable sales within 25 km in the last three years fed it. A guide at this level lands within 20% of the sale price about a third of the time, so treat it as a starting point only.

€2,620/m²

Asking price divided by the 147 m² floor area. Too few comparable homes nearby to rank it.

Confidence
Low

2 comparable sales within 8 km and 59 within 25 km in the last three years. Enough for a rough guide, not for a verdict on the asking price.

What it costs a month

About €1,670 a month on a 90% mortgage over 30 years at a typical current rate, plus property tax. Work it out for your own deposit.

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.

What's the house like?

Front of Ballytoohey from the street
Street View, read automatically. Outside only. A prompt for your surveyor, not a substitute.

The subject site comprises a regular-shaped, level greenfield infill plot situated adjacent to an existing residential terrace along a main road corridor in Termonbarry. The site is cleared, well-drained in appearance, and bounded by a low stone wall and mature vegetation. It represents a prime development opportunity for a single detached dwelling or a small cluster of residential units, subject to obtaining full statutory planning and highway consents. As an undeveloped site, there are no existing structural buildings to evaluate. The ground appears stable, level, and recently maintained/cleared of dense brush.

In its favour

  • Substantially level and flat site topography, significantly reducing site preparation and groundwork excavation costs
  • Direct road frontage with existing curb line and pedestrian pathway, simplifying site access and future driveway integration
  • Adjacent to an established modern residential development, indicating favorable precedent for zoning and utility extensions
  • Convenient location close to local public transport links (bus stop) and village amenities

Watch for

  • Raw, undeveloped greenfield site requiring complete utility infrastructure connections (mains water, drainage, electricity
  • Subject to planning permission approval, sightline regulations, and local authority zoning restrictions prior to development
  • Direct proximity to the roadway could result in traffic noise and require specialized highway crossover/drop-curb approval
  • Overlooking risks from the adjacent two-story terraced housing row along the neighboring perimeter

Inside: fresh and move-in ready

TurnkeyNeeds some workNeeds modernisation

The interior is presented in very clean, well-maintained decorative order throughout the visible living areas. Modern wood-effect flooring and neutral paintwork create a bright, contemporary feel ready for immediate occupation. No immediate repair work is required; budget primarily for any elective kitchen modernisation and cosmetic personalisations.

Kitchen
Fitted with painted raised-panel units, dark laminate worktops, tiled splashbacks, a breakfast bar, and tiled flooring.
Open-plan Living and Dining Room
Substantial open reception space featuring light wood-effect laminate flooring, neutral walls with painted feature framing, and glazed patio doors to the garden.

Going for it

  • Extensive open-plan reception space offering flexible family living
  • Generous natural light from multiple windows and patio doors
  • Flooring and wall finishes appear in excellent, clean order
  • Spacious kitchen with ample counter space and breakfast seating

Needs doing

  • Kitchen units are older traditional style rather than contemporary
  • Bedrooms and sanitary facilities are not verified
  • Panel radiators suggest a standard conventional heating distribution

BER C and the cost to reach B2

What should I check before I sign?

BER C, 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.

12 must-do checks, tailored to this house. Budget €3.5k to €7.3k 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
Check septic tank registration and get a percolation test
Registration is a legal requirement, and an advisory notice on the system becomes your remediation bill.
MUST
€400 to €900
Check for a planning occupancy condition on the house
Rural one-off homes often carry a seven-year occupancy clause restricting who may live there, which affects both your purchase and your resale.
MUST
Test the well and confirm rights of way and wayleaves
Private supplies need testing for E. coli and nitrates, and access rights are a common rural title problem.
MUST
€80 to €200

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
10 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
Raise the 3 items our report could not confirm
Where public data is missing, pre-contract enquiries are how you close the gap.
SHOULD
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.
WORTH IT
