Default North South divide.

There are a few brown-site developments in the City Centre, but they
are usually at the high end of the market (eg £500k for two beds).

The large amount of (fairly) recent building on former employment sites,
mainly ex-Philips like at St Andrew's Road and St Matthew's Gardens, is more
reasonably priced. And some 30% is affordable housing (40% on newer
developments).

St Matthew's Gardens is a bit cheaper with 3/4 bed houses nudging half a
million. St Andrews Road, on the other hand, is much more expensive for
freehold 3/4 beds with several valued at the moment in the 700-800k
bracket. Leasehold 2 bed flats are around 400k.
