Summary - 8 THE BRACKENS BASINGSTOKE RG22 4QU
7 bed 3 bath Detached
Turnkey rental unit near schools, transport links and parking.
Licensed 7-bedroom HMO with strong rental demand
This detached seven-bedroom property is offered freehold and currently configured as a licensed HMO, delivering clear appeal to buy-to-let investors and portfolio buyers. The house includes three modern shower rooms and a fully equipped communal kitchen, arranged to maximise rental occupancy and practical shared living.
Situated in comfortable suburbia in Basingstoke (RG22 4QU), the home benefits from very low local crime, fast broadband, average mobile signal and excellent access to schools, shops, green spaces and the M3 corridor. Off-street parking and a decent plot add to its lettable strengths in a market where parking is sought after.
The building dates from the early 1990s and has double glazing (install date unknown) with mains gas boiler and radiators. Total internal area is modest at 1,248 sqft, so communal and living spaces are compact — important to consider for future tenant mixes or layout changes. Council tax is above average, which will affect net yield calculations.
There is clear potential to enhance rental income and long-term value through targeted refurbishment or efficiency upgrades (for example clarifying glazing age or modernising heating controls). Buyers should carry out standard HMO compliance checks and factor ongoing maintenance into purchase costs.
