Just a short stroll from Holyrood Park lies Dick Place, Scotland’s most expensive residential street with an average price of £1,506,000, according to latest research from Bank of Scotland.
As the political and financial capital of Scotland it is not surprising that thirteen of the twenty most expensive streets are in Edinburgh. Some of the other priciest addresses in the capital are Ann Street with an average property price of £1,188,000, Kinellan Road (£992,000) and Spylaw Bank Road (£984,000). [See Table 1]
Seven of Edinburgh’s top addresses are in the EH3 and EH4 postal districts, including the New Town area and the West End which contains the financial district.
After Dick Place, the two most expensive streets in Scotland lie on the west side of Aberdeen city; Rubislaw Den South (£1,430,000) and Rubislaw Den North (£1,190,000).
Glasgow’s most expensive streets are Burnside Road (£974,000) and Bowmore Crescent (£908,000). Both are south of the city.
Outside Scotland’s three major cities the most expensive homes are on Queens Crescent in Auchterarder (£1,188,000). Set in Perthshire it is within striking distance of the West Coast as well as the world famous Gleneagles Golf Course.
Nitesh Patel, economist at the Bank of Scotland, commented:
“Scotland’s most expensive residential streets are concentrated around the three leading cities of Edinburgh, Glasgow and Aberdeen. The majority are located in the capital around the New Town and the West End, in close proximity to the Scottish Parliament and the financial district. “
