Affordable entry with parking and garden potential for buyers open to updating.
Ground-floor one-bedroom flat with private entrance
A ground-floor one-bedroom apartment offering 563 sq ft of living space and direct access from its own entrance. The layout includes a large L-shaped lounge/dining room, separate kitchen, double bedroom and bathroom. Allocated parking and a communal garden add practical value for residents.
This property will suit a buyer prepared to modernise: electric storage heating, an EPC rating of D and dated kitchen and bathroom fittings mean investment is needed to raise comfort and energy efficiency. Leasehold with around 70+ years remaining and an indicated service charge of £2,000–£3,000pa are important ownership costs to check with a solicitor.
Set in sought-after Kingsthorpe close to schools, shops and bus links, the flat benefits from uPVC double glazing, fast broadband potential and excellent mobile signal. The area has above-average crime rates and a mixed local profile (social renting and student neighbourhoods), so buyers should consider local dynamics when viewing.
At £85,000 this presents a lower-entry purchase with refurbishment upside for a first-time buyer or investor targeting rental demand near colleges and local amenities. Council Tax Band A keeps running costs low, but expect to budget for heating upgrades and cosmetic works.
