- Managed estate setting: Located in a popular residential development, the property benefits from an established neighbourhood character and cohesive community feel.
But keep in mind:
- Second floor planning status: Buyers must verify whether the second-floor conversion and storage rooms received full local authority planning permission and building control compliance certificates.
- Attic conversion regulations: As the upper rooms are marketed for use as a home office, ensure that adequate fire safety and ceiling height regulations were properly met.
- Energy rating boundary: While the B rating is good, the indicator of 210.72 kWh/m2/yr sits towards the lower end of the B bracket, so monitor insulation specifics.
- Semi-detached acoustic privacy: Being a semi-detached dwelling, prospective buyers should inspect party wall sound insulation to ensure minimal noise transmission from next door.
- Management company fees: Investigate if there are any annual estate management fees or charges applicable for the upkeep of common areas within the development.
- High gloss flooring maintenance: The high gloss walnut timber flooring throughout the ground floor can show scratches and footprints easily, requiring diligent ongoing cleaning.
- Compact second floor clearance: Due to the sloping roofline of the attic conversion, check the usable headroom in the second-floor rooms to ensure full furniture placement comfort.
- Single wardrobe limitations: Bedroom two features only a single built-in wardrobe, which might prove restrictive for storage needs if used as a double bedroom long term.
- Boundary line clarity: Buyers should carefully review the title map to confirm the exact property boundaries, particularly regarding the railway sleeper garden beds.
- Shared neighborhood parking: While the driveway holds two cars, visitor parking in the development may occasionally become congested during peak evening hours.
- Potential flooding proximity: Given the location near the lakeside towns of Ballina and Killaloe, verify local drainage reports and historical flood risk assessments for the area.
- Solid fuel stove compliance: Ensure the solid fuel stove in the lounge meets current local air quality regulations and has been recently serviced by a professional.
- Boiler age and service: Request the service history of the gas boiler to determine its remaining operational lifespan and whether a replacement might be needed soon.
- Mains sewerage capacity: As a popular suburban development, check with local authorities regarding the capacity and future maintenance plans for the local mains sewerage network.
- Window seal integrity: Inspect all PVC double-glazed windows and doors for any signs of misting between panes or degraded seals that could impact thermal efficiency.
- Attic storage weight limits: While the attic space is floored, confirm its structural load-bearing capacity before storing heavy items in the accessible eaves areas.
- Garden maintenance demands: The neatly manicured lawns and shrubbery beds will require regular gardening upkeep to maintain the current pristine presentation standards.
- Television and data wiring: Verify the current broadband speeds available at this specific address to ensure they adequately support remote working requirements.
- Extractor fan functionality: Test the mechanical extractor fans in all bathrooms and the guest WC to ensure they are venting properly and preventing moisture buildup.
- Asking price reflection: At nearly four hundred thousand euros, carefully assess comparable recent local property values to ensure the pricing aligns with current market conditions.
Price positioning
?
- The asking price appears somewhat elevated relative to historical transactions on the same estate, signaling potential overvaluation based on traditional local benchmarks.
- Signals of overvaluation stem from recent neighbouring sales clustering well below the current marketing figure, suggesting a premium is being sought for specific attributes.
- Stronger specifications, pristine turn-key condition, and converted second-floor storage rooms could support the higher price point by offering expanded functional living space.
- Conversely, narrower buyer demand at this upper price bracket and broader regional market softening could undermine the sustainability of the asking price.

- A buyer should investigate the documentation regarding the attic storage space and ensure that proper insulation and ventilation are maintained following the conversion work.
