Some amenities are available nearby, though a car may be useful for regular errands like grocery shopping. The nearest transport stop is 115m away (bus). Rail links may require a connecting journey. The median property price is £178,750, with moderate growth of 13% over five years. Based on 2 transactions recorded since 2014. Rented accommodation predominates, with larger households suggesting families. There are 13 schools within 2 km, 12 rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. 2 are rated Outstanding. Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 316m away. However, high crime rates and a dense urban environment significantly undermine family suitability despite the school provision. The data suggests this area could appeal to property investors. Overall, this street scores 42 out of 100 for liveability, in the lower quartile for its district. The low safety score is the dominant factor affecting liveability here.
