What are your house guests most interested by?
Through the use of eye-tracking technology, new research has shed light on the key factors that guests will notice the most when visiting our homes.

As could be expected, an office space is one of the most eye-catching areas of a property, which makes sense considering the rise in working from home in the last 18 months.
Top 10 areas that guests find most eye-catching
– Office chairs
– Kitchen floors
– Child’s cot
– Throws on a bed
– Kitchen cabinets
– Bathroom mirror
– Drawers under the sink
– Home office computer
– Child’s bookcase
– Bedroom chest of drawers
After the home office space, kitchens were the next room to draw attention from guests, with the choice of flooring attracting 100 more views than for the cabinets or sink.
Whilst it still remains essential to present your cooking area in the best light during any property viewings, the findings actually showed that hobs and extractor fans were the least interesting spots in the kitchen.
