However, the street is short and not that many properties sell each year, so the average prices are not the most accurate guide on what you could expect to pay.

While flats in the area can sell for around the £400k mark, one four-bed house sold earlier this year for £1.2 million.

Schools: Notre Dame Primary School, one of the best performing primary schools, is within a short walking distance of the street. It’s also good news for those with kids at secondary school age. Notre Dame High School is one of the best performing public schools in Scotland, coming 25th in the Times’ most recent rankings.

Transport: The Partick, Hillhead and Kelvinhall subway stations are both just a short walk from the street, while the Hyndland and Partick train stations are both just a short drive - or longer walk - away.

Properties for sale: Unfortunately no properties on the street are currently for sale.
