Summary - 6 SWALLOW CLOSE WELLINGBOROUGH NN8 4BY
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Open-plan living with garage and long lease in handy town-centre location.
Two-bedroom first-floor apartment, compact 562 sq ft
This well-presented two-bedroom first-floor apartment offers compact, modern living in a cul-de-sac within easy reach of Wellingborough town centre and rail links. The open-plan lounge/kitchen maximises usable space and receives good natural light from multiple UPVC windows. A single garage and allocated parking add practical value uncommon for apartments at this price point.
The property is currently let at £695 pcm, making it immediately suitable for buy-to-let investors, while the size and layout also make it a practical entry point for first-time buyers seeking low-maintenance living. The gas central heating and EPC C rating are positives for running costs, and the long lease (106 years remaining) reduces immediate lease-related risk.
Notable drawbacks are factual and important: the flat is compact at around 562 sq ft, broadband speeds are slow, and the wider area scores as deprived with average crime levels. The apartment is sold leasehold and is presently tenanted, so viewings and vacant possession timing will depend on the tenancy. Service charge and ground rent are reported as nil, but buyers should verify this and all lease details before exchange.
Overall, this is a practical, budget-friendly apartment offering garage parking and a straightforward layout. It suits buyers prioritising affordability and convenience rather than large living spaces or high-speed connectivity; sensible buyers or landlords can expect modest, reliable returns or a low-entry home close to schools and transport links.
