The UK's 10 best streets to live on according to estate agents - they're not all expensive
Streets across the country have been identified with average price tags ranging from £160k to in excess of £2m - and they've been chosen by the experts.
Ten of the best streets to live on in the UK have been identified by estate agents and they aren't all extremely expensive. The average house price in the country was £282,000, according to the latest government figures, and £2,000 lower than the previous estimate.
MailOnline has produced a list of the 30 best streets to live in based on property experts and estate agents' recommendations.
Towns and cities as far afield as Nottingham, Hexham, Swansea, Shaftesbury and the Isle of Mull feature on the list, with average prices ranging from £160,000 to more than £2million.
Parkside in Wollaton, Nottingham, has an average price of £650,000 and is identified as a prime address thanks to how close it is to good schools, its welcoming neighbourhood feel and proximity to historic Grade I-listed Wollaton Hall.
Elvaston Road in Hexham, Northumbria, also appears on the list, and is described as a "very attractive street" packed with post World War One housing. Ryan Eve, a director at Finest Properties told the Mail it is positioned near the town centre and is in walking distance of "very good schools". The average house price here is £451,000.
Gold Hill in Shaftesbury, Dorset, is remembered by some as the location for the famous Hovis ad, featuring a delivery boy pushing a bike up this steep street. With its views over the Dorset countryside, it's perhaps no wonder the average price here is £328,000.
Mayals Road, Swansea, has an average house price of £404,000 and is seconds away from Swansea Bay. This street is hailed for its proximity to the village of Mumbles and for being on a main road towards the scenic Gower Peninsular.
Forming the backdrop to the BBC drama Balamory, The Main Street in Tobermory, Isle of Mull, is an attractive prospect, with an average house price of £160,000.

Cliff Road in Salcombe, Devon, is one of the country's most expensive coastal resorts. Cliff Road offers "stunning" views of the nearby estuary and North Sands beach is minutes away, making this street the best for your money, according to Charlie Heath, manager of Marchand Petit estate agents.
At the upper end of the scale is Bywater Street in London where the average house price is £2,250,000. This street's pastel-painted Georgian houses are greatly sought after and often sell without appearing in estate agents' windows.
Another pricey spot is Rock Road in Rock, Cornwall, where the average house price is £1,880,000. The road's appeal is largely thanks to the local shops nearby and a golf course not far away, according to Josephine Ashby at John Bray.
Potters Bank is one of Durham's priciest roads and boasts a mix of old and new homes. The average price tag here is £370,000. York's Bootham leads to York Minster and is the birthplace of poet WH Auden. Its mix of Georgian and Victorian homes are minutes from the centre, with an average house price of £325,000.
