Summary - Derngate Lofts Derngate, Northampton, NN1 1TY NN1 1TY
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Compact duplex in the theatre quarter — affordable city-centre entry or rental opportunity.
One-bedroom duplex with open-plan living kitchen
This compact one-bedroom duplex in Derngate Lofts sits in Northampton’s theatre and dining quarter, a short walk from the train station and town centre amenities. The ground-floor open-plan living area has an integrated kitchen with appliances; a first-floor bedroom and shower room complete the layout. A small enclosed front garden adds private outdoor space unusual for city flats.
The property is offered as leasehold with 120 years remaining and an EPC C rating. Electric heating and room heaters are installed (no gas), and the building has a service charge of approximately £1,790 per year. The flat is small (about 399 sq ft) but well laid out for a single occupant or couple seeking city-centre living or a rental investment.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: the neighbourhood records high crime and is classified as a deprived, cosmopolitan student area; nearby schools include a mix of ratings. Heating is electric only, which can raise running costs compared with gas; broadband speeds are average. On-street parking only and a modest annual service charge are factors to consider for purchasers.
For first-time buyers the flat offers an affordable city-centre entry point and low council tax banding. For investors the location near restaurants, theatres and transport links supports rental demand, but factor in service charges, electric heating costs and the area’s higher crime statistics when assessing returns.
