Summary - THE VIEWPOINT, 50A FLAT 22 SHEEP STREET NORTHAMPTON NN1 2LZ
5 bed 2 bath Town House
Large urban home with rooftop views and private two-car parking.
Five double bedrooms across three floors
A substantial five-bedroom townhouse arranged over multiple floors in The Viewpoint, a gated development on Sheep Street, offers spacious town-centre living with private outdoor space. The property’s top-floor roof terrace delivers wide views over the Holy Sepulchre Church and provides a large, private area for dining and entertaining. Internally the layout suits families: an L-shaped lounge/diner, a well-equipped kitchen, three bedrooms and two bathrooms on the sleeping floor, plus two large double bedrooms with terrace access and generous built-in storage.
Practical features include secure underground parking for two cars, gas central heating with a modern combi boiler, double glazing and a long lease (109 years remaining). Communal costs are evident — an average service charge of £1,560 and a ground rent of £250 per year — so factor these into running costs. Broadband speeds are average and mobile signal is excellent.
This location places you in the heart of Northampton with immediate access to shops, restaurants, cultural venues and transport links, making day-to-day life convenient. Nearby schools are mixed: some with Good Ofsted ratings and others rated Inadequate, so check specific catchment and performance details if schooling is a priority.
Important negatives: the property sits in a neighbourhood classified as very deprived with very high local crime levels, and the wider area is a cosmopolitan student neighbourhood which can bring evening activity and noise. The tenure is leasehold — review the lease terms and communal responsibilities carefully before committing. Overall this house will suit buyers wanting substantial town-centre accommodation with exceptional outdoor terrace and parking, who are comfortable with an urban, lively setting and the costs of a managed development.
