3D maps for each property on Foxtons.co.uk

Since early 2007, Foxtons has provided the functionality to view properties in Google Earth. However, now you can explore around each property in 3D â within your web browser.

Google Earth is an interactive mapping application from Google that allows you to 'fly' over the world in all directions viewing high resolution satellite imagery in 3D.

Thanks to a quicker, easier-to-use plug-in for your web browser you can start viewing properties even faster, without the need to open the Google Earth application at all.

Google Earth enables you to drag the map around; rotate around a location; tilt down to see further afield and also view landmark buildings in 3D to really get a feel for each area.

To get started, simply go to the map section of any individual property, click on 'Google Earth' and you will be prompted to install the new Google Earth plug-in. Once installed you are free to explore!
