The street in brief

Water Street is almost entirely terraced houses. The median sale price is £98,000, about 46% below the typical OL2 sale. Recent sales are too thin to call a trend for the street itself; OL2 prices as a whole have been rising. With 10 sales across 7 homes since 2003, homes here come to market only rarely.
