The street in brief

Princeton Street is a street almost entirely of flats. The median sale price is £412,000, about 52% below the typical WC1R sale. Recent sales are too thin to call a trend for the street itself; WC1R prices as a whole have been rising. With 35 sales across 25 homes since 2001, homes here come to market only rarely.
