The street in brief

The Drive is a street almost entirely of detached houses. Homes here typically change hands around £337,500 — roughly 21% above the LE8 norm. Per square metre of floor space it comes to about £3,317, above the district's £3,050. Too few recent sales to read a street-level trend, but across LE8 prices have held broadly level over the last few years. The record shows 24 sales across 11 homes since 2000.
