The estate  surveyors and valuers  strongly  believe  that accessibility has strong  effects  on property
values but  without  justifiable  empirical technique to  prove their assertion. The  paper  exam 
network   of  roads   in  lkeja   with   the  aim  to  empirically determine  its  accessibility and
connectivity. The  graph  of the  road  network  of the  study  area  was derived from  its  street
a graph  theoretic qualitative technique adopted  to determine the levels  of accessibility and
connectivity,  while   correlation  and  analysis of  variance   techniques  were  used  to  prove the
relationship    between   the    variables.The research    finds    empirical   way    of   
determining accessibility,  and   recommends  the  application   of  the   finding   to  estate valuers in proving accessibility which they hitherto decide intuitively in relation to property values.
