Horsham Property
Since the pandemic, many people have continued to work from home.
This has led to an influx of ex-Londoners into the town, as a result, the demand for property in the area has risen substantially.
As is always the case with supply and demand, sadly, property prices have also risen with the average cost of purchasing a home in Horsham coming in well over the national average.
For those on a limited budget, head to Moorhead Road and Bedford Road. Homes in these neighbourhoods provide cheaper options.
If you have more financial wiggle room, Springfield Lane, Nowhurst Lane, Rookwood Park and Springfield Lane are where you will find the most expensive homes.
As you would expect with a growing town, there are four new developments under construction across Horsham.
