The property market in NN18 0ND is characterised by high home ownership, with 74% of properties owned by residents rather than rented. This suggests a market skewed towards owner-occupation, likely driven by the area’s stability and proximity to essential services.

Given the area’s small size (1.1 hectares), the housing stock is limited, meaning buyers may need to consider nearby zones for additional options.
