The street in brief

Reading Street is mostly flats. Homes here typically change hands around £75,000 — roughly 17% below the L5 norm. Per square metre of floor space it comes to about £640, below the district's £1,250. Recent sales are too thin to call a trend for the street itself; L5 prices as a whole have been rising. With 18 sales across 15 homes since 2005, homes here come to market only rarely.
