The Berkshire property market

Average prices around £490,000 vary from Windsor's premium for its Royal Borough status to more accessible prices in Bracknell. The Elizabeth line has dramatically increased Slough, Maidenhead, and Reading's appeal for London buyers, and prices have responded strongly.

This area is particularly popular with: London commuters, tech industry workers (Thames Valley), families, and buyers priced out of west London.
