The tree-lined avenue is gated and guarded at each end and is home to some of the wealthiest individuals on the planet.

Among its inhabitants are F1 heiress Tamara Ecclestone and Chelsea football club owner Roman Abramovich, as well as a string of embassies.

Kensington Palace Gardens is also the home of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.

The average property on billionaire’s row costs a cool £29 million @Zoopla's 2021 rich list.

By comparison, the average house price in the UK currently stands at around £265,668.

According to @Zoopla, homes on 11,673 roads in Britain are now valued as being at least £1 million. Of these, 4,544 were in London with 4,336 in the South East.

To put that into context, just nine are in Wales, 41 in the North East, and 55 in Yorkshire and The Humber.

In at second is Courtenay Avenue, in Highgate, on the edge of leafy Hampstead Heath and just a stone’s throw from Kenwood House stately home.

Fancy pitching up there? The average house price here is a staggering £19,440,000.

That's 73x more expensive than the rest of the UK.

Grosvenor Crescent in Belgravia, a short stroll from Buckingham Palace, ranks third with an average price of £17,212,000.

Taking the title of heftiest house price outside of London is Titlarks Hill in Ascot, coming in at almost £8.5 m.

Five streets in the exclusive Surrey enclave of Virginia Water feature in the most expensive list outside of London, including Portnall Rise in third place – with an average property value of £6,408,000 – plus Woodlands Road East and Wentworth Drive.
