Google ‘Britain’s most expensive streets’, and at a touch of a button, the search engine will bring up an abundance of information about London being a hot spot location for buyers searching for the best homes on the market.

Overseas buyers are particularly keen to invest in the Capital especially since the Eurozone crises, with many properties sold going to cash-rich Europeans looking to move some of their wealth into the stability of the prime London property market. Marylebone, with its wealth of elegant properties and desirable High Street, has been attracting affluent buyers for a number of years. Demand for properties priced between £1.5 and £4million is intense, resulting in properties selling within an average of just seven days in Marylebone.

For those looking to secure their offspring in good educational establishments, Marylebone has well regarded business schools, increasing its popularity with buyers from the UK and overseas. But with prices high and supply short in prime Marylebone, the next area to invest in could well be West Marylebone. The ripple effect will mean more buyers are attracted to this part of Marylebone and will therefore further boost property values.
