The UK 's Most Expensive Streets

The UK 's Most Expensive Streets

Rather unsurprisingly, the most expensive residential streets in England are in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, according to latest research from Lloyds TSB.
Close to fashionable shops and top end restaurants, Egerton Crescent (pictured) is the most expensive residential street in England and Wales with an average property value of over £8 million (£8,136,000). Some of the other expensive streets in the Royal Borough include Campden Hill Crescent with an average property price of £4,863,000, Blenheim Crescent (£4,728,000), Lansdowne Road (£4,693,000), Drayton Gardens (£4,428,000) and Eaton Square (£4,391,000).
Parkside in Merton, South West London, is the nation’s second most valuable address with an average house price of £5,161,000. Home Park Road, also in Merton, is the sixth most expensive street with an average property price of £4,685,000.

Here’s a roundup of the rest of the results:
