The street in brief

Swain Street is a street almost entirely of flats, and every recorded sale is in one building, Padbury House. Homes here typically change hands around £260,000 — roughly 74% below the NW8 norm. Recent sales are too thin to call a trend for the street itself; NW8 prices as a whole have been easing. HM Land Registry records 13 sales across 11 homes since 2001 — homes here come up rarely.
