These are the 10 most virtually toured homes in the UK during lockdown

Looking for some property inspiration? OnTheMarket has revealed the top 10 most virtually toured homes during lockdown — and they include a breathtaking former water tower in West Sussex and a stellar London townhouse for sale.

Virtual house viewings has increased as house-hunters continue their property search during the ongoing pandemic, and OnTheMarket has looked at the 3D tours that have been the most popular since lockdown was implemented.

Vikki Bennett, spokesperson for OnTheMarket, said: 'It's interesting, although unsurprising, that consumer engagement with virtual tours has risen considerably since the beginning of lockdown. OnTheMarket is still receiving millions of visits each week and we believe millions of people are still seriously searching for their next home.

'While many people will fancy a glimpse through the keyhole at a luxury townhouse, virtual tours have become invaluable to serious buyers.'
