The Best Market Town New Homes In Basingstoke

Located in Hampshire, across a valley at the source of the River Loddon, is Basingstoke. Basingstoke is an old market town, which was expanded in the mid-1960s, and it is the largest settlement in the county without city status. 

The town is well connected, with Basingstoke station linking residents to London Waterloo in less than 50 minutes, as well as direct trains to Winchester, Southampton, Bournemouth, Exeter, Reading and Weymouth.

Basingstoke is also home to a number of museums, activities and attractions including Basing House, Willis Museum and the Crabtree Plantation. 

For families with children, each neighbourhood in the town has at least one primary school, and there are a number of secondary schools around the town. Basingstoke is also home to two large further education colleges, Queen Mary’s College and Basingstoke College of Technology.
