Things You Should Know

Limited tenant pool

Low walkability (25) and transport (30) narrow the pool of potential renters. Consider whether the yield justifies the risk.

Limited daily services

Daily access score 6/100. Basic amenities like shops, GPs and post offices are not within easy walking distance.

Price anomaly

Median price £425,000 based on only 3 transactions. This may not reflect typical local housing — a few high-value sales can skew the median significantly.

Environmental mismatch

Environment score 3/100 is low for a location with limited urban amenities. Nearby road noise, industrial activity, or air quality issues may affect quality of life.
