The dilapidated property sold for almost €200,000 after a bidding war
A dilapidated Cork home severely damaged in a fire in 2021 has sold for €44,000 above its initial asking price via an auction on an online bidding platform.
Pictures of the property on Daft.ie show a four-bedroom home gutted by fire. Some of the house’s front windows are boarded up, and most of its interior walls and fixtures have been badly burned and blackened by smoke.
On February 16, the house was auctioned on Youbid.ie, a digital portal for live online property auctions.
Amid a quick succession of bids from six different parties, the 158sqm home’s price had jumped up to €194,000 before the auction concluded some 90 minutes later.
Youbid associate director Brigid Downes said online auctions were beneficial for buyers in that they can see how the bidding on their desired property unfolds before deciding to make an offer themselves.
She said that No 48 Gardiners Walk was one of a number of properties auctioned by the platform that day.
“We had a variety of properties on offer at our latest auction, from homes in prime rural locations to fixer-uppers, to commercial premises, and there was great deal of interest,” she said.
Another property in need of significant refurbishment — a three-bedroom, home in the townland of Lissahane near Listowel, Co Kerry — also sold for well above its asking price after a similar bidding battle between two prospective buyers.
The original €66,000 asking price rose to €85,000 just two minutes after the online auction began.
A modern, detached residence with a floored attic in Finglas is being brought to auction by online estate agent youbid.ie.
Indicative of the current housing market, bidding for Number 3 Clancy Court, in Finglas, begins at €350,000.
The property – which is being sold with the benefit of vacant possession – has a large rear garden and driveway to the front.
Measuring 80 sqm, the house has an entrance hallway, guest toilet on the ground floor, kitchen and dining area, sitting room, two double bedrooms and a single bedroom, and a family bathroom.
Typically houses in Finglas vary from an average of €250 upwards. A terraced three bed on Ratoath Avenue is currently being sold by Ray Cooke with a guide price of €210,000 and a 2 bed/2bath end house on Abbotstown Road is marketed at a guide price of €275,000.
A three bed by HJ Byrne on Kilshane Road has a guide price of €295,000 and a terraced house brought to market by DNG on Hazelcroft Road is on at a guide price of €250,000. Obviously, condition of property and outside space are also factors in the pricing.
The double-glazed home on Clancy Court is close to a variety of sporting and leisure facilities, such as Tolka Rovers FC and Erin’s Isle GAA club, along with being situated close to Charlestown SC and DCU Sports Complex.
Seven lots from five counties are going under the virtual hammer in youbid.ie’s on Thursday, February 16 sale.
