The street in brief

The Drift is almost entirely detached houses. Homes here typically change hands around £287,500 — roughly 14% below the CO7 norm. Too few recent sales to read a street-level trend, but across CO7 prices have been easing over the last few years. The record shows 6 sales across 3 homes since 2010.
