See inside the most-viewed homes of the month

We love seeing which properties have captivated the nation’s home-hunters each month. And as usual, February’s most-viewed rundown features some truly showstopping homes.

We even saw the renovation project from the hit BBC TV show, Amanda and Alan’s Italian Job, clinch the top spot. Our property expert, Tim Bannister, says: “Amanda Holden and Alan Carr’s recent Tuscany renovation tops the list of most viewed homes this month, which speaks volumes about our interest in restoration projects. We also saw a spike in searches for the areas where it was filmed, as people imagined what living in Tuscany or perhaps taking on their own renovation project might be like.”

1. Amanda and Alan’s Tuscan townhouse renovation

Amanda Holden and Alan Carr bought a derelict 3-storey townhouse in the hamlet of Fornovolasco for just €1, with the stunning result of their renovation project now for sale on Rightmove. And since the TV series documenting their renovation aired, we’ve seen searches for Tuscany jump by 40%, while searches for the nearby city of Lucca soared by 60%. Take a look at the top-to-toe makeover, complete with plush cinema room, wine cellar, and lots of one-off pieces from local markets and artisan Italian makers.

2. A jaw-dropping estate on the Isle of Man

Enjoying spellbinding panoramic views over the ocean, this truly unique residence is set within almost 300 sprawling acres. Extraordinary features include a galleried atrium and a secret staircase, along with enchanting gardens and terraces.

Brimming with history, Stanfield Hall has played host to countless notable figures, including 16^th-century gentry.

Along with a moat-side terrace for summertime al fresco entertaining.

Perched on the edge of the Lake District, this majestic castle dates as far back as the 12^th century. And, having undergone a meticulous renovation at the hand of the current owners, a host of original period features have been restored to their former glory. There is a Norman keep, a round tower and soaring-ceilinged dining room, as well as a hot tub and sauna room.
