Central location with garden and clear refurbishment potential.
Chain free freehold mid‑terrace Victorian house
A mid‑terrace Victorian house offered chain‑free and freehold, arranged over three floors with three bedrooms and an enclosed rear garden. The ground floor provides a separate lounge and dining room leading to a fitted kitchen with built‑in appliances; the property benefits from double glazing and gas radiator heating. At around 919 sq ft, the layout suits first‑time buyers or buy‑to‑let investors seeking an affordable city‑centre home within easy walking distance of Kettering town centre and local amenities.
The house retains period character externally (brickwork and sash windows) but shows clear need for modernisation inside. There are reported signs of damp and mould and some structural issues noted in the exterior fabric; sash windows will likely require repair or replacement. The property presents straightforward improvement potential — cosmetic works, damp remediation and targeted structural repairs would significantly increase comfort and value.
Practical considerations: the area has above‑average crime and higher deprivation indices, and the local housing mix includes many private rented households. Broadband and mobile signal are good. This is a practical, budget‑minded purchase for someone prepared to invest time and money into improvement, or for a landlord targeting central Kettering rental demand. Viewings will best suit buyers who are comfortable arranging surveys and remedial work where needed.
