A compact, chain-free studio apartment positioned within easy walking distance of Kettering town centre, the General Hospital and excellent A14 links. The open-plan living room with French patio doors and a separate modern kitchen offers a practical, move-in-ready layout suited to a single occupant or couple.
The property offers clear buy-to-let appeal with an estimated rental yield of around 6% and a long lease (115 years). On-site surface parking and low-maintenance communal grounds add convenience for tenants or owner-occupiers.
Be realistic about the setting: the wider area is classified as deprived with a high local crime rate, and the flat is small with limited communal/storage space. Service charge and ground rent apply (circa £800 and £300 annually) and additional leasehold fees may be payable when purchasing.
Overall this is an entry-level urban apartment for someone seeking low-maintenance living or a straightforward rental investment near transport and local amenities. Modernising finishes or adding built-in storage could improve rental prospects and capital value.
