Premiership property table revealed

Online estate agent eMoov.co.uk has studied the Premiership ‘property table’ before the start of the 2015/16 season. 

The new season starts with the Charity Shield, as FA Cup winners Arsenal take on champions Chelsea. These teams top the property league, with the most expensive average house prices in the top flight. Chelsea tops the table with the average in the SW6 post code at £1,137,550, but prices have fallen by 5% since the start of last season. Property around the Emirates on the other hand has climbed 6%, although Arsenal are still some £600,000 behind the league leaders.

Tottenham has managed a top four finish; property around White Hart Lane has also climbed by 6% to an average of £312,410.

Tottenham is due to undergo extensive redevelopment and its nearest tube stop, Seven Sisters, is earmarked to be part of Cross Rail 2.

London teams dominate the top six, with West Ham clinching the last Champions League spot with an average price of £306,451.

Manchester United manage 10th place in the league above rivals City by six places and a £80,000 difference in price.

Russell Quirk, CEO of eMoov.co.uk, said:  “Although the top two make for familiar reading, it’s interesting that a successful, wealthy Premier League club, doesn’t necessarily translate to a thriving property market in the surrounding areas.

“I think in terms of property, West Ham and Tottenham are the ones to watch. The developments in terms of location and transport infrastructure should see prices in both areas boosted as a result.”
