The nearest stop (Irving Grove) is 90m away. The median property price is £647,500, though prices have fallen 13% over five years. Based on 20 transactions recorded since 2014.

Both primary and secondary options are available locally. The nearest school is just 252m away. However, high crime rates and a dense urban environment significantly undermine family suitability despite the school provision.

Note that the composite score masks a serious safety concern that may outweigh other strengths for many residents.
