The street in brief

Herbrand Street is a street almost entirely of flats. Homes here typically change hands around £375,000 — roughly 50% below the WC1N norm. Too few recent sales to read a street-level trend, but across WC1N prices have been easing over the last few years. With 53 sales across 32 homes since 2001, homes here come to market only rarely.
