The 20 most expensive places to purchase property in the UK have been revealed that includes three Scottish destinations.
Leading estate agent comparison site GetAgent has unveiled its yearly Sellers Report for 2023, which reveals a current snapshot of what the sellers' market as we enter the new year.
In second place, with an average asking price of £2,697,500, is the Isle of Mull. The second-largest island of the Inner Hebrides, Mull is popular among tourists for its stunning wildlife and beautiful beaches.
Other highlights of the island include the Tobermory whisky distillery, the historic Duart Castle, and the Mull Museum. There is also an abundance of walking and hiking spots, including Ben More — the only island Munro outside of Skye.
According to the report, Virginia Water in Runnymede is the most expensive spot in the UK to buy property.
The commuter village in northern Surrey was found to have an average asking price of £3,278,055, more than a million higher than the number two spot. Much of the area is comprised of woodland, and the village itself includes a variety of shops and good train links into London.
The Isle of Islay appears at number five on the list, with an average asking price of £1,826,429. The gorgeous island is located on the 'whisky coast' of west Scotland and is home to nine distilleries, as well as delicious seafood and jaw-dropping scenery.
The third and final Scottish spot on the list is North Middleton, a small village in Midlothian where property costs on average £1,582,398. Located just over 10 miles from Edinburgh, it is perfect for those who want to be near the capital but retain the peace and quiet of country living.
