A ground-floor two-bedroom apartment in central Rushden offering straightforward, low-running-cost ownership with no ground rent or service charges. The layout provides a large lounge-diner, separate kitchen and two double bedrooms — a practical first home or buy-to-let opportunity close to shops, schools and Rushden Lakes.
The property retains period character externally with bay windows and high ceilings, and benefits from off-street parking and an enclosed rear courtyard. Heating is by electric storage heaters and windows are double glazed; the solid brick walls likely have limited insulation, so buyers should expect higher running costs than modern-built homes and consider insulation improvements.
Notable negatives are the EPC rating of E and electric-only heating, which may require investment to improve energy performance. The area is described as deprived with higher local crime rates; buyers should factor location and community considerations into their decision. The flat is offered freehold, no upper chain, and with low council tax, making it an accessible purchase for first-time buyers or investors seeking rental potential.
An internal inspection will show the property’s practical room sizes and scope for cosmetic updating. The rear courtyard has potential but needs maintenance and leveling. Overall this is a straightforward, characterful ground-floor home with immediate usability and scope for energy and cosmetic improvements to add value.
