Some of costliest areas in YOUR postcode uncovered

EVER wondered how the value of your home stacks up against others in the country – or around the world?

Well, now you can find out. A new online tool will tell you exactly how it compares to not only the average in your area, but to the rest of the UK and around the globe.

The tool, which calculates average house prices based on recent house sales in each area, has uncovered some quirky facts.

Did you know, for example, that the average price of a home in the UK is currently £234,466 but in London it soars to £680,607?

And according to the tool’s creators Web Blinds, the capital’s most expensive street is Westminster’s Eaton Square, where price tags average a staggering £16,900,000.

Going by recent house sales, Scotland’s priciest street is Loirsbank Road in the upmarket Aberdeen suburb of Cults with houses costing on average a hefty £1,303,350.

But that doesn’t come close to Monaco’s Avenue Princesse Grace, the most expensive in Europe, at £27.8 million.

And if you think we’re talking telephone numbers, check out Pollock’s Path in Hong Kong where the average house costs £248.1m.

We looked at the main towns and cities in each of Scotland’s 16 postcode areas and used the tool to uncover the average house prices in some of Scotland’s most expensive streets.
