Houses in St Andrews street most expensive

Properties in Fife town highest in Scotland, averaging £1.877 million

A street in St Andrews has been named the most expensive in Scotland for the third year running.

A property in Golf Place, near the famous Old Course, costs £1.877 million on average, according to Bank of Scotland research.

A street nearby also makes it into the top 20 most expensive, with a house in The Scores costing £1.092m on average.

Twelve of the country’s 20 most expensive streets are in Edinburgh, while four are in the Glasgow area and two in Aberdeen.

Northumberland Street in Edinburgh’s New Town is in second place, with the average property there costing £1.687m.

Ricky Diggins, director at Bank of Scotland, said: “Although Scotland’s most exclusive addresses have seen some exciting movement this year, prices have remained steady, with the average house price of £1,276,200 in the top 20 compared to £1,286,200 last year.

“Despite conceding the top spot to St Andrews, the capital continues to dominate the table of the most expensive streets and more broadly has strong average house prices.

“This year Glasgow has created some new entries on the leaderboard, showing encouraging signs for the market in the city and surrounding areas.”

Oakhill Grange in Aberdeen makes it into the top 20 for the first time with an average house price of £1.276m, while a house in Rubislaw Den South costs £1.171m.

In the west, Kingsborough Gardens in Hyndland has become Glasgow’s newly crowned most expensive street with a property there costing £1.140m.

Other entries classed as Glasgow include the suburb of Bearsden, the second most expensive address in the area, with a property in Manse Road costing £1.123m on average.

Castle Avenue in Uddingston is in third place (£1.093m) in the Glasgow area, while Woodhead Drive in Bothwell is a new entry with an average house price of just over £1m (£1.092m).

Millionaires’ row – St Andrews and Aberdeen both make two entries in the list.
