Every house on Broadway in Altrincham is surrounded by huge imposing gates. The wealthy residents living along this street have paid around £3m to live here, and privacy comes at a premium.
The street has just been revealed as the most expensive in the north west with an average house price of £3,184,000 along with neighbouring Barrow Lane with an average of £2,998,000.
Our reporter Louisa Gregson visited the street to see what it is like living there.
