Bay-fronted Victorian mid-terrace with period features
A bay-fronted, three-bedroom mid-terrace near Rushden town centre, this Victorian-era home offers a straightforward, affordable route into the area. Set across two floors, the layout includes a bay lounge, separate dining room, kitchen, ground-floor bathroom and WC, plus three bedrooms upstairs. Gas central heating and double glazing (installed post-2002) provide everyday comfort while an EPC rating of C reflects reasonable energy performance.
The property is chain free and well placed for local amenities, schools and the popular Rushden Lakes development — appealing for first-time buyers or small families wanting convenient town living. The plot is small with an enclosed rear garden and a modest front courtyard; the garden and shed are dated and will need maintenance or refurbishment to suit modern tastes.
Buyers should note the area’s higher crime levels and local socioeconomic indicators, and that the house likely has solid brick walls with no built-in insulation (typical of its era). These facts point to potential improvement costs if buyers wish to upgrade thermal performance or invest in security measures. Council Tax Band A keeps running costs low.
Overall this is a practical, characterful purchase for those looking to personalise a period terrace close to town. Viewing is recommended to assess room sizes and the scope for cosmetic or insulation upgrades.
