Summary - 50 POOLE STREET NORTHAMPTON NN1 3EX
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Affordable central home with period charm and low running costs.
No onward chain — quick completion possible
This two-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace on Poole Street offers a straightforward, chain-free purchase ideal for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The property retains period character such as a timber fireplace and sash-style appearance, and benefits from gas central heating and double glazing. With an EPC rating of C and very low council tax band A, running costs are relatively modest.
Internally the layout is compact across two storeys, providing a sitting/dining room, kitchen, two double bedrooms and a bathroom. The rear courtyard garden is low maintenance and the house sits close to town centre amenities and good transport links. On-street permit parking serves the property rather than private off-street parking.
Notable considerations are the small plot and average room sizes typical of Victorian terraces. The area shows higher crime levels and relative deprivation, which may affect long-term tenant demand or resale in some buyer segments. The solid-brick walls likely lack cavity insulation and the property will suit buyers prepared to carry out targeted improvement works or modernisation.
Overall this freehold terrace represents a pragmatic entry into the Northampton market: affordable, period character, and no onward chain, but best suited to purchasers who accept compact living, some upkeep or refurbishment, and an urban neighbourhood context.
