Which are the most expensive roads to live on in Chelmsford

We are all aware that some neighbourhoods command a premium over others, yet it’s often the desirability of specific roads that makes all the difference. Whether it’s because they have built their own favourable reputation over time or simply their proximity to amenities, transport or schools, some roads cost significantly more to live on than others.

This theme is replicated across the whole of the UK, from the Bishop’s Avenue in north London, to Deansgate in Manchester and Little Aston in Birmingham. But everywhere must have a most expensive street even outside the big cities. So with that in mind, we looked for the most expensive roads in Chelmsford, and how much of a premium they command.

The most expensive street in our area is St Johns Green with properties costing £895,000, 171.1 per cent more than the local average. This is followed by Armistice Avenue, where property prices average £642,000, 94.5 per cent more than the average. Both these areas have a winning formula of high quality housing stock and excellent location.

If you own a property on either of these roads you are in a strong selling position. But it’s not just properties in these streets that are in demand; the average house price in Chelmsford has increased by 40 per cent over the last five years. It’s clear there is a healthy demand for properties, no matter whereabouts in the area they are located.
