Move-in ready.

Is Cushina worth the asking price?
Asking within our estimated range, low end. The asking price is 8% below our €402,000 midpoint.
If you bid, think in €362,000 to €442,000. Opening near €351,000 would be aggressive in this market. A house priced like this is likely to close near the asking.
Asking price divided by the 178 m² floor area. Too few comparable homes for sale nearby to rank it.
12 comparable sales within 8 km in the last two years, and 8 comparable homes for sale in the area. Estimates at this confidence land within 20% of the sale price about 58% of the time.
The house is in good order. We never lift an estimate for a finish, only trim the low end of the range.

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?
The property occupies a highly visible corner position within an established Irish town centre setting at a key intersection. Comprising a multi-storey traditional masonry structure with mixed-use potential (ground-floor commercial and upper-level ancillary/residential space), the building benefits from consistent passing vehicular and foot traffic, though it faces typical urban constraints regarding noise, parking, and maintenance of older fabric. Externally, the building fabric appears structurally intact with rendered elevations and traditional slate roofing.
In its favour
- Prominent town-centre junction location offering high visibility for commercial use
- Substantial floor space across multiple storeys with mixed-use commercial and residential potential
- Traditional solid masonry construction with pitched slate roofing
- Close proximity to town amenities, local squares, and regional transit corridors (R419/R420)
Watch for
- Direct frontage onto a busy road junction exposes the building to continuous traffic noise and exhaust emissions
- No visible private off-street parking or dedicated vehicular access
- Zero front setback leaves ground-floor openings directly exposed to pedestrian foot traffic and splashback
- Overhead utility cabling and junction signage encumber the external facade
Inside: modernised walk-in condition
The interior is finished to a very high standard with modern fittings and neutral decor. Living spaces are bright, spacious, and ready for immediate occupation. Budget for minor routine maintenance and furnishing, as visible areas require no immediate remedial work.
- Kitchen / Living Area
- Modern off-white shaker cabinetry with timber-style worktops, a central island, and a freestanding solid fuel stove.
- Sunroom / Dining Room
- Bright reception space featuring a vaulted ceiling with roof windows, full-height glazing, and French doors.
- Entrance Hall
- Spacious hallway laid with decorative patterned floor tiles, white woodwork, and a wall-mounted radiator.
Going for it
- Bright and spacious open-plan kitchen and living layout
- Sunroom extension provides generous natural light and garden access
- High standard of contemporary fixtures and decorative finishes throughout
- Freestanding solid fuel stove provides an efficient secondary heat source
Needs doing
- Bedrooms and sanitary facilities could not be inspected
- Extensive polished tile flooring can feel cold underfoot without underfloor heating

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.
