Zoning evaluated against the point
FINGAL_DP_OWN · — – —
RS - Residential: Ensure that any new development in existing areas would have a minimal impact on and enhance existing residential amenity.
R2 — Existing residential the fingal development plan 2023 2029 · 5 Apr 2023 – 5 Apr 2029
RS - Residential: Provide for residential development and protect and improve residential amenity
What that means: An established residential area. The objective is to protect existing residential amenity as well as to provide housing — which is the objective a neighbour's objection to an overbearing extension is usually argued under.

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`).
