Affordable starter property with parking and renovation potential.
Chain-free end-of-terrace with allocated off-street parking
Perfectly pitched for a first-time buyer or investor, this chain-free end-of-terrace sits in Kettering with allocated off-street parking and straightforward layout. The ground floor offers a bright living room and a naturally lit kitchen; upstairs are two bedrooms and a family bathroom. The compact footprint and simple plan make it easy to maintain or to reconfigure for more efficiency.
There are practical running notes to consider: heating is via electric storage heaters and the glazing dates from before 2002, which can mean higher energy costs compared with modern systems. The area shows signs of local economic constraint and higher crime rates; buyers seeking a very quiet or premium neighbourhood should factor that in. The property was built between 1976–82 and has partial cavity wall insulation only.
Value drivers include the low purchase price, no onward chain, allocated parking and good digital connectivity (fast broadband, excellent mobile signal) — useful for remote working or rental demand. The house is small at approximately 485 sq ft, so it suits those wanting an affordable entry onto the ladder or a buy-to-let with modest management needs.
Practical next steps: budget for energy-efficiency upgrades if low running costs are important (heating and double-glazing replacement), and consider simple cosmetic improvements to maximise resale or rental value. Viewing will show whether the layout and room sizes meet your needs.
