A street in Cheshire has been named the third most expensive outside of London. According to the latest edition of property website Rightmove's 'Most Expensive Streets' report, Congleton Road in Alderley Edge was the North West's most expensive address with an eye-watering average asking price of £3,323,500.
Only East Road in Elmbridge and Newlands Avenue in Hertsmere had bigger average asking prices outside of the capital. Winnington Road in Barnet, London, retains its top-spot position as 2026’s most expensive street, with an average asking price of a whopping £12,538,095.
The analysis is based on Rightmove’s market leading data, with the UK’s largest choice of homes for sale and rent and includes streets where at least five homes have been available for sale across January this year. Colleen Babcock, Rightmove’s property expert said: "Britain’s most expensive streets always capture the nation’s attention and this year we see the return of Winnington Road in North London, as Britain’s most expensive street based on asking prices.
"In fact, this year’s top 20 is taken up almost entirely by London addresses, showing the city still reigns as supreme when it comes to ultra-prime property. For buyers looking for prestigious roads outside of the hustle and bustle of London, Elmbridge in Surrey is flying the flag for the rest of the country as the only area outside the capital to make the top 20 list."
