It may not be possible to go and visit your dream home just now but you might still be able to take a look around thanks to the wonder of virtual viewings.

Many estate agents were marketing their properties using video walk-throughs or 360 photo tours long before the coronavirus pandemic hit the UK.

But since the implementation of strict social distancing measures to combat the spread of the virus, viewing a home from the safety of your armchair has never been so attractive to would-be renters and buyers.

And many enterprising agents ordered by the Government to cancel viewings, at least until the current measures are reviewed on 13 April, are making the most of this.

OnTheMarket has collected some of the best virtual viewings for you to enjoy.
