Rightmove has revealed the most-viewed homes of July 2024, including a Passivhaus home, a remote lighthouse, and an abbey referred to as 'one of England's loveliest houses.'

'As the summer holidays come around, our most-viewed home this month is a castle in the hills of Italy,' says Tim Bannister, Rightmove's property expert. 'From historical estates to a remote Scottish island, it’s clear to see why these properties have caught the eye of home-hunters this summer.'

29-bedroom castle, Biella, Italy
Valdengo Castle is located one hour from Milan and offers stunning 360-degree views of the Biella countryside.

All the rooms facing the south-west side have French windows onto a long balcony. While the castle needs modernisation, including a new roof, flooring and bathrooms, you get a lot for your money with this rural home.
This property is on the market for €790,000 with Sotherby's via Rightmove.

Historic Grade I-listed abbey, Oxford
Wytham Abbey was described by The Times is 1991 as 'one of England's loveliest houses' and we think it's still the case. Built mainly of local limestone and brimming with large stained glass windows, marble fireplaces and a beautiful late-Georgian oak staircase, the abbey is a joy to behold. And sat within 23 acres of gardens and parkland just three miles from Oxford, it's an ideal place for an events business or a grand family home.
