Summary - 27 Elm Road, KETTERING NN15 7AY
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Period family home with office outbuilding and easy commuter links.
Three bedrooms in traditional semi-detached layout
This traditional three-bedroom semi-detached home on Elm Road offers a mix of period charm and practical family space. The living room is a bright, medium-sized room with a woodburner and air-conditioning; the kitchen includes modern fitted units and integrated appliances. An adjoining lean-to, outbuilding currently used as an office, and a decent rear garden extend the usable space for home-working and storage.
Practical features include off-street parking, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, double glazing, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — useful for commuters. Kettering town centre and the train station are within roughly a ten-minute walk, providing frequent routes into London. Local schools have generally good Ofsted ratings and community amenities are close by.
Be upfront on drawbacks: the property dates from the 1930s–1940s and the solid brick walls likely lack cavity insulation, so energy performance is limited (EPC D). There is one principal bathroom only. The area is ranked as very deprived locally and records above-average crime — factors to consider for resale or family buyers. Council Tax Band A keeps running costs lower.
This home suits buyers wanting an affordable, commuter-friendly family house with immediate usable space and scope to upgrade insulation and energy efficiency. It’s ready to live in, while offering straightforward renovation potential to improve comfort and long-term value.
