Change of scene?

In this short article we take a quick look at what's driving home moves

  • Change of scenery/lifestyle remains a key driver behind home moves, as the persistent shortage of supply has held back potential home moves.
  • Change in lifestyle/scenery becomes a more significant reason as the value of the home rises, peaking at 21% in the £750k – £1m price band.
  • At the lower end of the housing market, a need or desire to upsize is the main driving force behind home moves peaking at 23% in the £125k – £250k price band.
  • Other key drivers behind home moves are wanting to be closer to family (10%), retirement (7%) and bereavement (6%).

An executive high specification four-bedroom detached family home, built in 2021 and offering spacious living, modern design, and low-maintenance gardens. With two reception rooms, a master bedroom suite, a stylish kitchen/breakfast, it’s ideal for families seeking comfort, privacy and convenience.

In early 2023, headlines warned of a looming UK house price crash—but the reality has played out quite differently. Rather than collapse, the market has shown resilience, with modest shifts and growing stability, particularly in towns like Attleborough. As we move through 2025, fears of a crash appear increasingly unfounded.

Set in a quiet cul-de-sac on the edge of Attleborough, this stylish four-bedroom detached home offers spacious, light-filled living with high ceilings throughout. Highlights include a generous 19ft entrance hall, dual-aspect lounge, 19ft kitchen/diner, and an enclosed garden with a 'secret garden', a good size driveway leading to double garage.

A quick look at Attleborough’s property market, where this time, I'm focusing on the £/sq.ft of all property that was 'for sale' in July—a key indicator of how the market is moving. More than just a number, it reflects the mix of homes for sale and the story behind local property values.
