5 most-viewed homes this month
One thing’s for certain – we’re a nation that loves to browse homes. Whether that be poring over floor plans, swiping through image galleries, or, with the tap of a heart, saving the homes we love to our very own property lists.
A whopping 8.3 billion minutes were spent on Rightmove in the first half of this year, and over 10,000 properties are viewed each minute on average. But what sort of listings did people look at the most over the past month?
Rightmove’s property expert, Tim Bannister, says: “This month’s list just goes to show the breadth and uniqueness of homes you’ll find on Rightmove. From a home with a cinema room worthy of Han Solo and Chewbacca, to a house filled with colour, these properties are testament to the fact there’s no such thing as an average home.”
Take a look at our latest roundup of most-viewed homes.
