The property market in N20 0EJ is defined by its high concentration of flats, with 69% of homes owned by residents rather than rented.

The predominance of flats, combined with the postcode’s small size, means the housing stock is limited in variety but likely efficient in space. For buyers, this presents a niche market where availability is constrained by the area’s physical boundaries.
