About 15 Burford Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

It hasn't traded since May 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area.

- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 15 Burford Close. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
