The street in brief

Essex Street is almost entirely terraced houses. Homes here typically change hands around £60,000 — roughly 65% below the OL11 norm. Per square metre of floor space it comes to about £1,345, below the district's £2,042. Recent sales are too thin to call a trend for the street itself; OL11 prices as a whole have been rising. HM Land Registry records 21 sales across 10 homes since 2002.
