Edinburgh has claimed six out of ten of the most expensive properties bought in Scotland over the last five years, according to figures released by Registers of Scotland.
The other top ten spots are held by Auchterarder with two, Longniddry and St Andrews with one apiece. The most expensive property on the list was bought for £5 million with the number ten slot costing the owners £3.1 million.
Surprisingly, no Glasgow properties made it into the top ten, falling short of the list by almost £1 million.
On average, 25% of Scotland’s residential properties change hands without a mortgage.
