The list reveals villages deemed the ‘most desirable’ in terms of costs and the lifestyle they offer. Full story here.
The Telegraph said more people are moving to the countryside due to greater flexibility about where to live through working from home, which resulted in the demand for rental homes in the countryside rising since the pandemic. As Sussex is close to London, it is often a location people move out of the city for.
The Telegraph’s list was created based on a combination of highest housing values, best lifestyle facilities, connectivity, and chocolate-box appeal along with trendy amenities like yoga studios, cycling shops and running clubs.
West Sussex had three villages that made the list with an average house price of £1,055,250 – Lurgashall, Lodsworth, and Lickfold.
East Sussex also made the list with Kingston-near-Lewes with an average house price of £792,339.
