The street in brief

John Street is a street almost entirely of flats. Homes here typically change hands around £148,000 — roughly 46% below the LU1 norm. Too few recent sales to read a street-level trend, but across LU1 prices have been easing over the last few years. With 125 sales across 92 homes since 2000, homes here come to market only rarely.
