Here's my read before you bid. At €495,000 it's priced broadly in line with the comparable sales. I'd treat the estimate as a guide — it leans on 10 sales of mixed fit. There is 1 red flag here I wouldn't ignore — the full report names it and what to do.
01One fails a health screen — and names the test to order — graded a red flag.
02A running-cost burden the asking price ignores — graded a warning.
03An amenity factor your solicitor won’t check — graded a warning.

⚑ RED FLAG
High radon area
Radon is the second-largest cause of lung cancer in Ireland and invisible at viewing. In high-radon areas the EPA recommends testing; remediation typically runs €800–1,500 if levels exceed 200 Bq/m³.
Recommended action
Order a 3-month radon test (€56) at sale-agreed, or request one as a condition. Remediation is a line item, not a deal-breaker.
