Most Expensive Streets In London: New Top 10

Central London's luxury property market operates at a scale that sets it apart from almost any other city in the world.

In an exclusive analysis of sold property transactions across all the boroughs of London, for the past 5 years from September 2020 to September 2025, we reveal central London's richest and most expensive streets, record-breaking sales, and the locations driving the highest total values.

The findings paint a fascinating picture of London's ultra-prime property landscape, from a £111,000,000 property in Knightsbridge to historic mansions in Chelsea, showing how different streets compete for the title of London's most valuable addresses.

By examining the market through three different lenses - average street prices (to reveal the most expensive streets), individual record sales on each road (to show the new outliers and road entering the London property market elite), and total street values (to uncover the most active high value locations) - we uncover patterns that highlight both the concentration of wealth in traditional prime areas and the emergence of new luxury property hotspots.

You won't find these streets in the best rental yields in London lists, as house prices at these levels mean rental yields are ridiculously low. These streets are certainly out of reach for the average London buy-to-let investor and instead attract London's millionaire and billionaire property buyers.

Through our analysis of over 15,000 transactions, we explore how historic squares like Grosvenor Square compete with traditional mansion streets like The Boltons, and how new luxury developments are reshaping the definition of prime central London property and billionaire rows.

2 MULBERRY SQUARE SW1W £20,666,242 3
3 KNIGHTSBRIDGE SW1X £19,367,273 11

9 LANCER SQUARE W8 £11,618,600 4
10 STANHOPE GATE W1K £11,485,714 7

Note: Only streets with more than two property transactions during this period are included in this table.

Whistler Square in Belgravia maintains London's most expensive street title with an extraordinary average price of £29.9 million, representing the pinnacle of the capital's ultra-prime residential market. This exclusive private square, developed as part of the prestigious Chelsea Barracks regeneration, demonstrates consistent ultra-luxury valuations with individual sales ranging from £16.7 million to £52 million across three recorded transactions.

Mulberry Square secures second position at £20.7 million average, establishing itself as another commanding presence in the SW1W luxury market. Both Whistler Square and Mulberry Square benefit from their prime Belgravia locations, offering residents unparalleled access to central London while maintaining the privacy and exclusivity demanded by international ultra-high-net-worth buyers.

Knightsbridge achieves third place with a £19.4 million average across 11 transactions, making it the most liquid market among the top-ranking streets. The street's transaction volume significantly exceeds other premium addresses, indicating strong market confidence and regular trading activity. Recent sales include record-breaking prices, with individual properties reaching £111 million, demonstrating the street's continued appeal to global luxury property investors.

The rankings reveal London's ultra-prime market geography and with these prices you can see its not a place for beginners learning how to invest in property. With traditional streets in the City of Westminster property market competiting with new luxury strongholds in Kensington and Chelsea dominating the list. Westminster locations claim six of the top 10 positions, while Kensington and Chelsea contributes three streets, including Holland Villas Road and Chelsea Square. Notably, all top 10 streets maintain average prices exceeding £11 million, establishing a clear threshold for London's most exclusive residential addresses.

Date range: 1st September 2020 to latest dates available on land registry price sold data at the time of research.

# Street Name Postcode Sale Price Date
1 KNIGHTSBRIDGE SW1X 7LJ £111,000,000 06 Apr 2021
2 WHISTLER SQUARE SW1W 8BT £52,000,000 08 Apr 2022
3 KNIGHTSBRIDGE SW1X 7LJ £49,500,000 12 Dec 2024
4 MULBERRY SQUARE SW1W 8BQ £34,000,000 03 May 2022

7 HOLLAND VILLAS ROAD W14 8BP £31,250,000 15 May 2023
8 ADDISON CRESCENT W14 8JP £29,000,000 12 Aug 2022
9 CURZON STREET W1J 8PG £29,000,000 30 Oct 2024
10 CAMPDEN HILL PLACE W11 3RJ £28,766,888 20 Dec 2024

Note: This table includes all properties sold during this period, including streets with single transactions, to capture significant outlier sales.

The most expensive individual transaction is the £111 million Knightsbridge penthouse sold in April 2021, cementing its status as one of the most valuable homes ever sold in London. This single sale alone underscores the continued dominance of SW1X at the very top of the super-prime market.

Whistler Square in Belgravia makes a strong entry at £52 million, reflecting the ultra-prime appeal of Chelsea Barracks apartments. Knightsbridge also appears again in third place with a £49.5 million sale completed in late 2024, proving sustained demand in this area even after record-breaking earlier transactions.

Beyond Mayfair and Belgravia, new entrants diversify the rankings: Holland Villas Road (£31.3M) and Addison Crescent (£29M) in West Kensington, plus Campden Hill Place (£28.8M) in Holland Park. These highlight the geographic spread of London's billionaire buyers into W14 and W11 alongside traditional West End postcodes. West London’s investment market now spans from buy-to-let opportunities to some of the most expensive family homes in the city.

Record Breaking Streets - Total Value of Property Sales

Updated September 2025

Date range: 1st January 2020 to latest dates available on land registry price sold data at the time of research.

# Street Name Postcode Total Value Transactions
1 MARSH WALL E14 £341,109,187 432
2 GROSVENOR SQUARE W1K £238,966,257 26
3 KNIGHTSBRIDGE SW1X £213,040,000 11
4 CARNATION WAY SW8 £173,100,277 98
5 PARK DRIVE E14 £142,220,617 138
6 BOLLINDER PLACE EC1V £112,203,357 98
7 PALMER ROAD SW11 £109,411,589 116
8 PROSPECT WAY SW11 £100,108,745 66
9 WARDS PLACE E14 £99,929,190 121
10 HORSE GUARDS AVENUE SW1A £98,649,013 9

Note: This table includes all properties sold during this period, including streets with single transactions, to capture significant outlier sales.

When analysing London's property market by total sales value, Marsh Wall in Canary Wharf leads with £341 million across 432 transactions, demonstrating the massive residential development boom in London's financial district. The rankings reveal distinct market patterns: Canary Wharf dominates with three entries (Marsh Wall, Park Drive, and Wards Place), while traditional luxury areas maintain strong positions with Grosvenor Square and Knightsbridge delivering high values through fewer, ultra-premium sales. The emergence of South London locations like Carnation Way, Palmer Road, and Prospect Way in Wandsworth reflects the significant sales, ongoing gentrification and development of areas previously considered secondary to traditional premium streets.

How to find the most expensive streets in London

Here is the step by step process we followed to get the data on all of the highest priced property sales and most expensive streets across the capital.

  1. Visit HM Land Registry price paid data set.
  2. Select your postcodes and property types (we choose all property types; detached, semi-detached, terraced and flat/maisonette. We missed 'other' as this often includes commercial properties and we are only looking for residential homes.
  3. Select your dates (we selected 01-01-2020 to the latest date available).
  4. The select how many results you would like. You can limit it to 100 for example. We selected 'All'
  5. Then download the data set and review for the highest sales

Note: Remember to remove duplicates as HM Land registry property transaction datasets can on occasion include duplicate listings and if these aren't removed it can skew the data especially for average property prices on specific streets where there are low transaction volumes.

You can of course do this for other postcode districts, towns and cities across England and Wales and we have done this for other areas around the country which you can find in our property research location datasets here.
