This mid-terrace Victorian home offers a compact, well-presented layout across two floors and approximately 735 sq ft. The ground floor has a combined living/dining room, practical kitchen and a utility/cloakroom; upstairs are two double bedrooms and a family bathroom. A small rear garden and double glazing are useful extras, and the property benefits from mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators.
The location is a short walk to Northampton town centre and local amenities including supermarkets, shops and public transport links — convenient for commuting and day-to-day living. The house is typical of older solid-brick construction, giving character and scope for gradual improvement, especially thermal upgrades if desired.
Important considerations: the local area records higher crime levels and is classed as deprived, with several nearby schools rated inadequate by Ofsted (though some primary options are rated good or independent). The building has original solid walls assumed to lack cavity insulation and the tenure is not specified; buyers should confirm council tax banding, lease/ownership details and carry out a full survey before purchase.
This property suits a first-time buyer or small household seeking an affordable, centrally located starter home with immediate useable space and realistic potential for energy and cosmetic improvements. It provides straightforward access to town-centre facilities while offering a small private garden and scope to add value over time.
