An attractively priced one-bedroom ground-floor flat offering low-maintenance living and immediate possession potential. The double bedroom, bright lounge and modern kitchen make this a sensible starter home or buy-to-let opportunity in Northampton.
Practical features include gas central heating, double glazing and generous built-in storage. The 118-year remaining lease provides long-term security for leasehold buyers; service charge is £822 per year (described as below average). Council tax is very cheap and there is no flooding risk.
Important auction and tenure notes: the property is sold via Modern Method of Auction. A non-refundable reservation fee of 4.5% of the purchase price (minimum £6,600) and other buyer fees apply; a 56-day completion period is required. Prospective buyers must review the Buyer Information Pack and complete their own due diligence before bidding.
Location is convenient for local schools, shops and amenities, but the surrounding area is classified as very deprived and crime is above average — factors that can affect long-term resale and rental demand. Verify service charge details, any additional leasehold costs and the exact auction terms before proceeding.
