More likely the planned travellers site at the end of wetherby road putting locals off.Officially in a clique of idiots0

I was going to make the same point as lobster in that 50k is quite a jump in 4 years... Have you done any improvement work on the property that would explain that? Perhaps the lack of a bath is putting some people off (though in saying that, there's a big walk in shower that can easily be replaced with a bath for very little work).
Are there any new build developments near you? With the HTB schemes they are very tempting for people.
Mainly I'd think it is the price jump... I was looking for something in the description to explain it more. I'm not familiar with the area, but I think that's an excessive jump for any area
Certainly is.0 -

£200-£325k 3bed+ 1/2mile
4 for sale 6 SSTC
Out to 1 mile
27 for sale and 44 SSTC
Plenty of people spending money in your price range.
If we change to 4bed+ 1mile we get 3/5 so not too much competition from those 4 beds and 4 of the 8 are at £325k.
narrow the search to 3b+ £250k-£300k 1mile
14/21 that's a small enough sample to check out the 21 SSTC and compare with yours.
map view and you can see where the market is
if we look further out there are some others in the price range out of the city see how they compare.
Given the numbers that are SSTC slow market must have come on very suddenly.
if we look at sold you can see what people bought in the last year within a mile at your price point.
eg this went for £300k
page 2 has the 25 sold between 260-290
watch for any of those SSTC ones as they come through.
I like the garden on the 300k one.0
