What can you buy for less than the average house price?
If you’ve been searching for your next home, you’ll know that the average asking price in Great Britain has continued to rise this year. Last month we saw the average price of a home reach £367,000.
But the types of property you can buy for this amount, or less, are anything but average. From terraced family homes with suntrap gardens, to historical hideaways brimming with unique character, here are just some of the amazing homes you can buy for less than the national average asking price.
Take a look at these homes currently for sale.

The fishing village hideaway
This postcard-worthy cottage sits in the fishing village of Staithes in North Yorkshire.

Despite sitting right in the centre of the village, this home comes with its own private parking space.
