Edinburgh has been knocked off the top spot for Scotland’s most expensive street, with Perth and Kinross taking the lead.

Data from the Bank of Scotland found properties on Queen’s Crescent in Auchterarder average £2,927,000, making it the most expensive in the country.

It has ousted Stockbridge’s Ann Street, which topped the table for two consecutive years, to second place, with its Georgian properties averaging £1,807,000.

Despite that, seven out of the top ten most expensive streets remain in the capital.

The top street had properties averaging £2,927,000

Queen's Crescent is part of Gleneagles Village, close to world-famous golf course, and other regions near golfing resorts appear prominently on the list.

Head of Bank of Scotland Home Isla Benzie said: “Queen's Crescent in the picturesque town in Auchterarder is Scotland's priciest postcode, with homes averaging a staggering £2,927,000.

"The charming street, just a stone's throw from the world-famous Gleneagles golf course, has taken the top spot by some way from last year's winner Ann Street in Edinburgh.”

In third place is Elphinstone Road in Giffnock, East Renfrewshire, a commuter belt area near Glasgow which has boomed in popularity because of it schools, with properties averaging £1,645,000.
