“Grand, bar a few jobs.”
Normal for its age. Budget for the work and you are fine. We could only check 3 of 6 sources for this address, so treat this as provisional.
01The exterior
Cullenmore, Blacklion from the outside — condition & kerb appeal
An automated reading of Google Street View and satellite imagery at this address. It sees only the outside, and it is a machine's view — treat it as a prompt for your surveyor, not a substitute.
The subject property comprises a detached residential dwelling situated on an irregular corner plot along the R761. It features a private garden, paved driveway, and detached ancillary outbuilding, but sits in an immediate mixed-use interface directly bordering an active commercial car park and access lane.
▲ What stands out
- Generous plot size featuring an enclosed, private side and rear lawn area.
- Dedicated off-street parking driveway and a sizable secondary garage or outbuilding.
- Mature boundary vegetation providing a dense natural privacy screen.
- Excellent transport connectivity with direct frontage onto the R761 regional corridor.
- Potential scope for reconfiguration or extension due to surrounding plot space (STPP).
▼ Watch for
- Direct adjacency to a busy commercial car park and access lane to the rear/side, risking noise and light intrusion.
- Frontage on a primary regional road (R761) results in elevated traffic noise, emissions, and difficult vehicle egress.
- Extensive boundary overgrowth requiring immediate arboricultural management to protect drains and foundations.
- Corner/junction plot positioning exposes the dwelling to headlight sweep and higher traffic movement.
- Obscured street-level visibility prevents preliminary visual verification of external walls, render, and fenestration.
02Price & comparables
What Cullenmore, Blacklion costs, and how the price compares
Built from recent sold prices on the Property Price Register (last 12 months, index-adjusted to today) and comparable homes currently for sale, compared on a € per m² basis for this home's 283 m². An estimate, not a formal valuation.
Based on comparable homes on the market now — beds, size, BER, type and area. Our estimate for a home like this is around €1,241,000 (€1,117,000–€1,365,000). Estimates at this confidence land within 20% of the sale price about 55% 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.
Change in the CSO Residential Property Price Index for Mid-East, to May 2026. A regional trend, not this exact home.
Fair value blends our price model with the price per m² of 11 comparable homes for sale; the asking is 43% 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.

04Energy & upgrade
BER A1 — running costs and the upgrade to a green rating
Personalised to this property. Everything in this section is worked out from this home’s own BER of A1, as published on its Building Energy Rating certificate, and its actual floor area of 283 m² — not an area average, and not a typical-home estimate.
This home is rated A1. It sits at or above the B3 threshold most lenders want for a green mortgage rate.
Already energy-efficient
At BER A1 the fabric and heating are already strong — solar is the main remaining gain.
| Measure | What it does | Cost | SEAI grant | Net |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Solar PV panels | Generates your own electricity, cutting bills | €7,000 | −€1,800 | €5,200 |
| Total after grants | €7,000 | −€1,800 | €5,200 | |
Reaching a B2 rating unlocks green-mortgage rates (roughly 0.2–0.5% lower) and lifts resale value. SEAI grants shown at current rates; costs vary by contractor and a technical survey. You can apply through SEAI's One Stop Shop scheme.

-
Ask why they are selling and how long they have owned itmust

-
Look for Japanese knotweed in the garden and along boundariesshould

-
Run every tap, flush every toilet, open every windowshould

Sort with your lender or broker

Stamp duty is 1% up to €1m, 2% between €1m and €1.5m, and 6% above that. It is the largest cost buyers forget, and on a new build it is charged on the price excluding VAT.
