Top tips for a Tadley Home Buyers Survey
Tadley is a town in Hampshire which has some period housing but the vast majority was built in the 1950s and 1960s. There are a number of new estates in Tadley and Baughurst. Both older (1920s and 1930s) and new estates are well planned with large gardens and plenty of woodland and open space. In addition there are old peoples flats, some council houses and caravans.
Outside Tadley and Baughurst the area is sparsely populated. A small council estate in Brimpton and the hamlet of Brimpton Common are the only major centres of population. Every size and shape of house from the mansion to one bedroom bungalows are represented, however. A few small cottages still exist but mainly they are the larger, modern five bed, three bath types or 'three-knocked-into-one' cottages.
New build developments include those in West Street and Ravenswing Park, with everything from detached houses to park homes.
