Median €398,750 (range €265,000 – €580,000), median €4,276/m².

42 matched to the exact address; 18 with beds, floor area and BER from the matched daft.ie advertisement.

*PPR addresses are geocoded, not surveyed — a sale's position is as good as its address match (`rooftop_n` says how many are address-accurate). Beds, floor area, BER and asking price come from the matched daft.ie advertisement, not from the Register, and only where a match was found (`enriched_n`).*
