About 2 Rayleigh Road
2 Rayleigh Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Basingstoke (RG21 7TJ). It has a recorded floor area of 64 m² (around 688 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B.

Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
