The street in brief

Merlewood Avenue is a street almost entirely of semi-detached houses. The median sale price is £226,750, about 19% below the typical OL3 sale. Per square metre of floor space it comes to about £3,068, in line with the district's £3,065. Too few recent sales to read a street-level trend, but across OL3 prices have been easing over the last few years. With 14 sales across 8 homes since 2002, homes here come to market only rarely.
