Situated on the top floors of a converted Victorian boot and shoe factory, this split-level two-bedroom home offers dramatic high ceilings, exposed beams and generous room sizes uncommon for city flats. The large lounge/diner with skylights creates a bright, flexible living space, while the contemporary kitchen with island and a four-piece bathroom add modern convenience.
Practical features include electric underfloor heating throughout, uPVC double glazing and one allocated parking space behind secure gates. The property is sold with no upward chain and benefits from an exceptionally long lease of 995 years, making it straightforward to purchase for first-time buyers or buyers looking for a ready-to-move-in urban home.
Buyers should note the wider neighbourhood scores as very deprived and records higher local crime levels; purchasers may want to consider this when assessing safety and resale. The block does not permit pets. Service charge and ground rent apply (approx. £160 pcm and £150 pa respectively) and the property has an EPC rating of D. There is no gas supply; heating and hot water are electric.
This home suits someone seeking character and generous internal space close to shops, cafes and transport links on Wellingborough and Kettering Roads. The layout and strong room proportions also give clear scope for minor cosmetic updates to personalise the space while retaining original industrial features.
