2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Affordable city-centre flat near shops and riverside walks.
Ground-floor two-bedroom apartment with open-plan living
This ground-floor two-bedroom apartment on Henry Bird Way offers straightforward, modern accommodation close to Northampton town centre and the Waterside. The open-plan lounge/kitchen and two double bedrooms suit first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking a low-maintenance base with good transport links (A45, A43, M1) and walking access to shops, restaurants and riverside walks.
The building is red-brick, purpose-built and sits within well-kept communal grounds with allocated off-street parking. The flat is presented in reasonable, saleable condition with double glazing and a compact fitted kitchen; rooms are average size for a modern apartment and ceiling heights are standard.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold with approximately 100 years remaining and an annual service charge of about £1,500. The local area has high crime and higher deprivation indicators, which will affect long-term desirability and rental yields; prospective buyers should factor in local area risks and insurance considerations.
This apartment is best suited to a buyer seeking an affordable city-centre home or a landlord wanting a simple, lettable unit with good connectivity and strong mobile and broadband services. There is scope for small cosmetic improvements and EPC enhancement to increase appeal and potential income.
