Egerton Crescent Becomes the Most Expensive Street in Britain
The property prices on Egerton Crescent have grown very rapidly in the last decade to make it one of the most expensive street in Britain. A study conducted by Lloyds TSB found that a typical house on Egerton Crescent today costs as much as £8,136,000. As expected, it is way above the price of an average home in the UK which stands at just£160,879. The street that boasts of elite residents has white stucco-fronted façade and neatly trimmed rows of box trees. A four bedroom family home on the street was purchased recently for a high £12million. It is a quiet street but located centrally and is just a stone’s throw away from the Victoria and Albert Museum and the shops of Knightsbridge.
Egerton Crescent Prime Location & Classical Architecture Attracts Foreigners
The houses have been designed in such a way that they have tiny front gardens only but a community garden and the Hyde Park are not far away. The Lloyds TSB highlights the immense wealth gap that has emerged in the last decade. A five bedroom house on the street had been sold for only £430,000 in 1998. It was resold for £5,130,000 in 2006 and £10,500,000 in 2011 despite the overall real estate market being dull and struggling to come out of the impact of the economic downturn. The super rich foreign businessmen and bankers have been attracted to the street because of its prime location and classical architecture and helped boost the property prices here.
