All of the top 10 most expensive places to live - with the exception of Poole, in Dorset, ranked in tenth place - are in London's boroughs of Kensington or Westminster, or in the affluent area of Weybridge, in Surrey.

These include Grosvenor Crescent, in Westminster, with an average price of £16,918,000. The street was named the most expensive place to live two years ago in the annual survey by Lloyds Bank.

The top 10 also includes Lansdowne Crescent, in Kensington, where homes cost £10,842,000 and Camp End Road, in Weybridge, where buyers can expect to pay £5,164,000.

THE COST OF STAMP DUTY ALONE IN LONDON IS MORE THAN THE PRICE OF A HOME IN WALES

The cost of stamp duty on a typical £16million house in England's most expensive street is more than the actual price of a property in the most expensive street in Wales.

The stamp duty paid to buy an average £16,944,000 property in London's Eaton Square would be £1,947,030.

It is an effective tax rate of 11.49% due to the overhaul of stamp duty two years ago, which hit more expensive homes the hardest.

The total stamp duty charge is more than the £1,064,000 paid on average for a property on the most expensive Welsh street, which is Llys Helyg Drive in Llandudno.

The average £16million price of a house in England's most expensive street is in sharp contrast to the typical price paid by those buying in the most expensive street in Wales.

The most expensive Welsh street is Llys Helyg Drive in Llandudno, where buyers pay £1,064,000.

That is £15,880,000 less than in London's Eaton Square.

It means someone could buy around 15 houses in Llys Helyg Drive, Wales, for the price of one in London's Eaton Square.

And this compares to an average national price of £216,674, according to statistics from the Land Registry.

Other streets in the capital to make the top 20 are Coombe Park, in Kingston Upon Thames, The Green, and Ham Common - which are both in Richmond Upon Thames.

Outside of London, the most expensive streets include Panorama Road, in the Sandbanks area of Poole, with an average price of £4,618,000 and Crick Road, in Central North Oxford, at £4,049,000.

The study, based on Land Registry figures for house sales between January 2011 and October 2016, found that there is at least one million-pound street in every region of England and Wales.

In the north of England, Park Lane, in Altrincham, Greater Manchester, is the most expensive street with homes selling on average for £2,059,000, followed by Leycester Road, in Knutsford, Cheshire, at £1,786,000.

In seventh place is London's Kensington Road, with a typical property value of £10,185,000

The average price of a property in the exclusive area of Camp End Road, in Weybridge, is £5,164,000

Andrew Mason, mortgage director at Lloyds Bank, said: 'Eaton Square, and prime central locations such as Westminster, and Kensington and Chelsea, have established reputations as exclusive addresses. Not only do these streets possess a rich historical legacy, but properties located there are some of the most prestigious in the world and are close to superb local amenities in Knightsbridge, Sloane Street and Chelsea, as well as the capital's business and entertainment districts.

'Away from London, our figures show that the most expensive streets tend to be tightly clustered within pockets in the same area.

'For example, the Edgbaston district in Birmingham, the Wilmslow and Altrincham areas in Cheshire, the so-called 'Golden Triangle' in Yorkshire and the Humber and Sandbanks in Dorset on the south coast.'

Cavendish Road, in Weybridge, fills ninth place, with average properties on the street costing £4,705,000

The typical value of a home in Panorama Road - which is in tenth place - is £4,618,000
