Fox Crescent trades rarely, with only a handful of recorded transactions over the past year. The street's composition is consistent: both recorded sales have been detached homes, the dominant property form in this pocket of Dempsey. Market activity here remains thin enough that the street's own price band cannot be reliably stated; suitability and value are most clearly understood in the context of the wider neighbourhood comparable.
