A practical two-bedroom first-floor apartment in Kingsthorpe, offered chain free and with a long lease (circa 959–999 years remaining). The bright lounge overlooks a communal green, while two bedrooms both include built-in storage. A rear-access single garage adds useful private storage or secure parking. The block benefits from communal access, double glazing throughout and good local amenities including schools, shops and bus links to commuter routes.
The interior is tidy but dated in parts: the kitchen and bathroom are functional yet would benefit from modernisation. Heating is by electric storage heaters, which can be more expensive than gas alternatives. Service charges apply (last annual figure £1,431.98) and the property is leasehold—important for buyers to note when budgeting.
This apartment suits first-time buyers looking for an affordable, well-located starter home or investors seeking a low-maintenance let in a popular Kingsthorpe location. With straightforward cosmetic updates and potential energy improvements, the flat offers scope to increase comfort and value while being immediately habitable.
Important drawbacks are factual and clear: small overall living size (approx. 560 sqft), dated kitchen and bathroom, electric heating, and an annual service charge. Buyers requiring a garden or large living areas should note the communal setting and compact footprint.
