Cost of place in Yorkshire Millionaires' Row rises

Price comparison site Mouseprice.com revealed that the most expensive street in Yorkshire is Fulwith Mill Lane, Harrogate, for the third year running.

Average prices on the street, in the south east of the spa town, were 1,201,100, showing a tiny rise of 7,800 in the street's value from last year.

In second place this year is Ling Lane in Scarcroft, Leeds, which was ranked at number 4 in last year's report. The average value this year is 1,106,900.

Manor House Lane, Leeds, came third this year for the second year running with an average of 1,095,200. Poll organisers say the road runs across Alwoodley Golf Course and has wonderful views.

Two other streets in the top 10 list are located in the same area of Leeds: Sandmoor Drive (number 5) and Alwoodley Gates (number 8).

A spokesman said: "In fact, out of all the postcodes listed in the top 10, LS17 holds the highest number of streets.

"The majority of the postcode areas in the rankings lie in

Leeds' s northern suburbs, with easy access to the city centre, Leeds Bradford Airport, and 'A' roads leading to the motorway network."

There are four streets in the rankings which have average values of over 1m, compared with five last year.

But the overall average of the top 10 streets in is only marginally lower than last year: 1,003,170.

Yorkshire's place in the market is also underlined by having seven different postcode areas in the top 10 list, which is more than can be found in most other regions. More often than not, many of the most expensive streets are clustered together.
