Summary - 5 PARK AVENUE ABINGTON NORTHAMPTON NN3 2BX
6 bed 2 bath Semi-Detached
Spacious period family house opposite Abington Park with garage and rear parking.
Chain free Victorian semi with six double bedrooms and high ceilings
Set directly opposite Abington Park, this substantial Victorian semi-detached home offers generous, characterful accommodation across three floors plus cellars. Six double bedrooms and large reception rooms retain many period features — high ceilings, sash bay windows, original fireplaces and restored Minton tiled entrance — creating bright, flexible family living spaces. The property is chain free and benefits from a double garage and rear parking accessed via a service road, with walled rear gardens backing onto Northampton Cricket Ground.
The ground floor features a spacious open-plan kitchen/dining area with modern navy units, granite worktops, island and attractive herringbone flooring; a wood-burning stove adds warmth and character. Practical extras include mains gas central heating, ultrafast broadband availability and excellent mobile signal. The rear garden is private, well-established and laid mainly to lawn with patios and mature planting, while the double garage provides secure parking and storage.
Notable practical points: there are only two bathrooms for six bedrooms, and the property’s solid brick walls are assumed to lack modern insulation. The EPC is D and council tax is band F, which should be factored into running costs. The wider area is a mixed, professional neighbourhood with above-average crime statistics compared with national averages.
This home will suit a large family seeking period character, space and proximity to green space and good schools, or buyers wanting a high-profile, easily lettable property in a sought-after conservation location. Some upgrading and insulation improvements would enhance energy efficiency and reduce ongoing costs.
