Lawrence Hall, spokesperson for Zoopla, said: “Many of us may aspire to live in Britain’s most sought-after and expensive counties.
“However with average county property values above the national average, many prospective buyers are priced out, so it’s reassuring to know there are still some locations where value can be found.”
The price of a Lancing property is below the national average of £299,763, Zoopla found.
