Summary - 44 OAKLEY ROAD CORBY NN17 1NA
2 bed 1 bath End of Terrace
Characterful two-bed near station with scope to add value.
Freehold two-bedroom end-terrace with character fireplaces
Set in Corby Old Village and offered freehold, this two-bedroom end-terrace is a practical, affordable step onto the property ladder. The house has two reception rooms, two double bedrooms and original open fireplaces that give plenty of character and flexible living space. A new consumer unit and a working combi boiler reduce immediate safety and heating concerns.
The location is a strong selling point for commuters: the train station and town-centre shops are within easy walking distance. The rear patio leads to a decent plot with a laid lawn and brick-built shed, while a small front lawn is enclosed by a Corby brick wall. Council tax is very low, which helps ongoing affordability.
There is clear scope to add value through modernization. The property has older double glazing (installed before 2002) and solid brick walls that likely lack insulation, so energy efficiency improvements would be beneficial. Expect cosmetic updating in the kitchen and bathroom and some general refurbishment to maximise resale potential.
Be candid about location factors: the wider area is very deprived and recorded crime levels are very high. Those issues affect desirability and should be weighed alongside the commuter convenience and value potential. For a first-time buyer or investor willing to modernise, this property presents a budget-friendly purchase with tangible upside.
