The top 10 most expensive streets in Britain are all located in London, new data reveals. 

For buyers with the deepest pockets, properties in Knightsbridge – which is the road that houses One Hyde Park – are the most expensive, with an average price tag of £21,409,000. 

Ilchester Place in London is the second most expensive street to buy a home, with prices at around £19,387,000. 

Grosvenor Square and Clarendon Road are the third and fourth priciest streets in London to purchase properties, with homes typically costing £19,061,000 and £17,030,000 respectively, Lloyds said. 

While still in the top 10, at £13,696,000, properties on The Little Boltons street in Chelsea cost £7million less than those in the heart of Knightsbridge. 

Amanda Bryden, head of mortgages at Lloyds, said: ‘London’s dominance in the list of priciest streets underscores the city’s continued appeal and the resulting competitiveness at the very top end of the property market. 

‘However, at £21.4million to buy a home, even those with the deepest pockets might baulk at the price.’

Taking all the top 10 most expensive streets in London into account, buyers need an average of £16.5million to buy a home. 

With the average national house price standing at around £356,925, the most expensive properties in the country are almost 60 times more expensive than a typical home.

Turning to Scotland, Queens Crescent in Auchterarder is Scotland’s most expensive postcode, with properties generally costing nearly £3million. 

Wales has some of the ‘lowest most expensive properties’, Lloyds said. 

Average properties on Benar Headland in Pwllheli typically cost £1,345,000, making in it the most expensive street in Wales. In Cardiff, Llandennis Avenue has the priciest property price tag, at £1,135,000. 

Ms Bryden of Lloyds, said: ‘The cost of securing a prestigious address does vary across the country. For instance, living on the most expensive street in Wales means paying around £1.3million, although still a significant amount.’   

Toby Leek, NAEA Propertymark president, said: ‘Knightsbridge showcases the enduring appeal of prime London real estate, particularly in areas renowned for their exclusivity and proximity to world-class amenities.

‘The report also illustrates stark regional disparities. While a home on East Road in Weybridge, the priciest street outside London, averages over £8million, the most expensive properties in Wales come in significantly lower, averaging around £1.3million.

‘Such figures emphasise the varied dynamics of the UK property market, where location and prestige dramatically influence valuations.’

He added: ‘This report is a fascinating snapshot of where the UK’s wealthiest choose to invest in real estate. As we move into 2025, these trends will likely continue to shape discussions around housing policy and urban development.’ 

How to find a new mortgage

Borrowers who need a mortgage because their current fixed rate deal is ending, or they are buying a home, should explore their options as soon as possible.

What if I need to remortgage? 

Borrowers should compare rates, speak to a mortgage broker and be prepared to act.

Homeowners can lock in to a new deal six to nine months in advance, often with no obligation to take it.

Most mortgage deals allow fees to be added to the loan and only be charged when it is taken out. This means borrowers can secure a rate without paying expensive arrangement fees.

Keep in mind that by doing this and not clearing the fee on completion, interest will be paid on the fee amount over the entire term of the loan, so this may not be the best option for everyone. 

What if I am buying a home? 

Those with home purchases agreed should also aim to secure rates as soon as possible, so they know exactly what their monthly payments will be. 

Buyers should avoid overstretching and be aware that house prices may fall, as higher mortgage rates limit people’s borrowing ability and buying power.
