WOZ and address data
There is no WOZ value available for this home, so no comparison with the asking price can be made. The address-level risk data, which are area-level indications rather than an inspection of this specific home, show that noise from road traffic, rail traffic and air traffic is below the relevant standards. The foundation risk indication is medium, partly because the building dates from before 1970 and 92% of properties in this postcode area were built before that year. The climate indications show an elevated risk of pluvial flooding during heavy rain, a low current flood risk, and a medium heat stress level that is expected to become elevated by 2050.
