Basingstoke Property Overview
Majority of Basingstoke’s development happened within the 1960s with it becoming an ‘expanded town’, like that of Milton Keynes. During the Second World War, Basingstoke was fortunate and didn’t see much damage, so much of the Victorian and earlier architecture, brought in with the arrival of the train station in 1839 that connected the town with London, still stands today.
Victorian housing can be found on Fairfields Road and Cromwell Road. There are also many Georgian properties still standing such as those on May’s Bounty and Penrith Road.
Vyne Park is a new development with one to five bedroom houses available. This has easy access to London as well as the houses being spacious and contemporary. Beckets Rise is a development of similar style and is one of the many new developments, as the town is continuing to grow.
