Based on 80 transactions recorded since 2014. The market is highly active with frequent sales. Rented accommodation predominates. This is not a family-friendly location.

Market indicators suggest an upward trend. This is a transport hub, not a residential neighbourhood. Functionality scores 55/100 (excellent access and transport), but liveability scores only 41/100.
