Set in the Riverdene area of Basingstoke, this mid-terraced 1960s townhouse offers three bedrooms across an average-sized 875 sq ft layout. The house combines period character with a contemporary open-plan kitchen and private garden, plus a single garage for secure parking or storage. The long lease (937 years) and affordable council tax make it accessible for first-time buyers or investors.
The living areas are compact but practical; the reception room and kitchen benefit from good natural light and patio access to the garden. The kitchen is described as contemporary with an island and large windows, providing a bright social hub for family life. Nearby schools include several highly rated primaries and good secondaries, and local amenities and parks are within easy reach.
Practical considerations: heating is via electric storage heaters, and some areas show mid-century fittings and wood panelling that will need modernising if you prefer fully updated interiors. Rooms are generally small to medium, so buyers seeking larger space should note the footprint. There is no flooding risk and broadband and mobile signals are strong.
Overall this property suits first-time buyers or investors wanting a well-located home they can personalise, or families looking for a compact, school-friendly terrace with garden and garage. The combination of long lease, good transport/communications and scope for cosmetic improvement provides clear potential, though buyers should budget for updating and be comfortable with electric storage heating.
