How to Easily Find a Property’s Address on Rightmove

1) Check the Image of the Front

Start by looking closely at the image of the front of the property on the Rightmove listing. Is there any visible house number on the property itself or on neighbouring houses? If you spot a number, jump straight to step 5.

2) Explore the Street View

If house numbers are not apparent in the listing images, no worries – you just need to do a bit more digging. Scroll down on the Rightmove listing until you locate the map. Click on the “street view” option to open it in a separate tab.

3) Virtual Street Exploration

Depending on the marker’s placement, you might need to virtually walk up and down the street using street view. Pay attention to distinctive features that can help you identify the property you’re interested in.

4) Zeroing in on the House Number

Once you spot the property, zoom in on the front door. If you’re using a Mac, you can hover your mouse over the street view and drag two fingers downwards to zoom in further. 

In case the house number isn’t visible, analyse the neighbouring properties. Zoom in on the neighbours to the left and right of your property to understand the numbering sequence. For example, if the house on the left is number 36 and the one on the right is 40, your property is likely number 38. Remember that house numbers on the same side of the street jump up in twos.

5) Search on Google Maps

Now that you’ve found the house number and street name (found on the Rightmove listing), head over to Google Maps. Simply enter the house number and street name in the search bar. If several options are presented to you, include the beginning of the postcode (should also be on Rightmove). In a matter of seconds, you’ll have the full property address at your fingertips.
