The average price of property sold in the past three years was £408,632.
The most expensive of these was 87 Suttons Lane, a 1,421 sqft three-bedroom semi-detached house which sold for £513,000.
The area’s aeronautical history is celebrated at the RAF Hornchurch Heritage Centre, which opened on Battle of Britain Sunday last September.
A hospital site on the street was sold for £40million in March 2018, in the biggest ever land sale by NHS Property Services.
