This newly renovated one-bedroom, open-plan flat offers low-maintenance urban living a short walk from Northampton town centre and the train station. The layout includes a large walk-in shower and double-glazed windows; secure gated parking and a residents’ gym add practical convenience for daily life.
The building was constructed c.2003–2006 and presents a modern finish throughout. Heating is by electric room heaters and the property is leasehold — buyers should check lease length and service charges. Council tax is described as affordable and there is no flood risk.
The location suits a first-time buyer or investor seeking strong rental potential near transport links, but note the local context: very deprived area classification and above-average crime levels. Several nearby schools have mixed Ofsted ratings including some inadequate results, which may concern families.
Overall this flat is a well-presented, low-upkeep city base with gated parking and communal amenities. It’s a practical buy for those prioritising proximity to transport and modern fittings, while buyers sensitive to area safety or long-term heating costs should factor these into their decision.
