## Recent sales — 4 within 1,000 m

Median €600,000 (range €408,000 – €1,025,000), median €3,900/m².

4 matched to the exact address; 2 with beds, floor area and BER from the matched daft.ie advertisement.

| Sold | Price | Address | Beds | m² | BER | New build |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

| 2024-04-18 | €490,000 | KNOCKNAGIN RD, BALBRIGGAN, DUBLIN | — | — | — | no |

*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`).*
